How brave were the children abseiling from this height? Nerves of steel and a fantastic achievement.

The sun is still shining and were raring to go and get cracking with all the morning activities.

What a fabulous group of children who asked to go to bed by 10pm! They were completely worn out by all the night time activities and loved the games room and the torch walk looking for bats around the site.

What a challenge! Make a raft, steer and paddle a canoe and a kayak. Fantastic attitude by all and everyone is having a whale of a time.

Let the fun commence. Orienteering, map reading and generally running through muddy fields.

Watch out for our water activities later on today...photos of canoeing, kayaking and raft building to follow.

What a fabulous start we have had. The children have settled into their bunkbeds and had lunch. Off to orienteering next.

We have been helping the Little Red Hen this week. We ordered a jumbled set of instructions for her and even helped her to bake bread. We loved it!

Watch out for our Year 6 blogs over the next two days. I hope to show the children challenging themselves in many different situations from raft building, canoeing, balance beams, orineteering, archery, abseiling, on the high ropes and trying to keep dry on the swamp romp or hitting the balloon on the leap of faith. I know they're all really excited and I do hope they manage to get some sleep tonight as they'll need their rest for the next two days.
