What a start to our Year 6 residential!
After arriving safely and settling in, it was straight into the action. First up was archery, which we discovered we were very skilled at!
Next came the climbing wall. There were some nervous faces at first, but everyone gave it a go and showed fantastic determination. It was brilliant to see the children cheering each other on and there were plenty of proud smiles at the top – and relieved ones when both feet were back on the ground!
To round off the day, we headed into battle for laser tag. Alliances were formed, strategies were discussed and a few teachers may have discovered that Year 6 pupils are surprisingly good at sneaking up on them! There were lots of laughs and more than a little competitive spirit.
So far, the children have been amazing – full of enthusiasm, encouragement and endless energy (we’re hoping some of them might actually sleep tonight!). Day one has been a huge success and we can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings.
Stay tuned for more adventures!
