The following shot is very washed out; however students can just be made out hoisting a flag to the top of a flag pole. A tug of war competition is then underway, and both teams fight hard. After several different matches he crowd disbands and a large mass of students run past the camera. The final sequence shows girls in a domestic lesson performing various household duties; they wash clothes, iron and ice cakes.
