After a very smooth coach journey, 48 Year 6 children arrived at Bowles at 10.50am. First up they were assigned their rooms and had to make their beds – an under-practised skill for many!
Then they settled into the dining room for a scrumptious jacket potato lunch.
Following this, they had a quick play before attending their first activities: Team A were skiing; Team Beast from the South-East were on the team ropes and high ropes; Team Cool Cucumber completed the team challenges and took part in pool kayaking and finally Team D were on the rocks climbing. Each and every child showed great teamwork, resilience, perseverance, courage and should be as proud as a lion.
Because they had worked up an appetite, they headed back to the dining room for a sausage and chip dinner – yum!
With no time to spare, they layered up their clothes, put on their hats and gloves and headed to the campfire to enjoy the campfire songs and sāmores!
All in all a jam-packed, fun-filled, exciting day and they cannot wait to get out for more activities tomorrow! Now just the task of getting them all to sleep!
