They went ahead to advise the students to be bold enough to take on opportunities that come before them, to stand out, speak up and to avoid situations and things that are most likely to put their mental health in a risky situation. These were accompanied by a number of illustrations and real life examples.

He called out a few volunteers from the students to select a word board, read out loud the message written on it and as-well explain to the rest what they understand by that message. All the volunteers gave right answers and so he just added on their particular submissions to make them understand more and more.

According to each category, the students were put up for a challenge where whoever won in their category was selected to be an ambassador or representative depending on their delivery. The selected ambassadors are the ones to represent their school in the various activities that Talent Walls will have in the future.
There was sabotage due to the rain. The event was initially outside but due to the rain, the event was put at a standstill so as to transfer it into a hall.
The students were not cooperative at the time of taking photos with the organizations and the talent walls team as they later had to be forced.
