Arriving and Starting the Day!
When we arrived, the children were excited to unpack their things and find out what the day would bring. They settled in quickly, chatted with their friends, and got ready for the adventures ahead. Everyone was eager to see what activities they would be doing.
High Ropes, Adventure Wall, Rock Climbing
& Zip Line
The children had an amazing time on the high ropes and adventure wall. They showed great bravery as they climbed the rock wall and tried the zip line. Some children felt a little nervous at first, but they didn’t give up and were so proud of themselves when they reached the top or zoomed down the line.
Lunchtime
At lunchtime, the children enjoyed sitting together and trying new foods. Many of them tasted things they hadn’t eaten before, and they chatted happily about their morning adventures. It was a lovely chance for everyone to relax and refuel.
Geography Focus: Map Reading & Habitats
In geography, the children worked on using co‑ordinates and reading maps. They searched for different animals and their habitats, using clues to help them find the right places. Once they found them, they matched each animal to where it lived, showing great teamwork and problem‑solving.
History Focus: Air Raid Shelter
In history, the children learned about what an air raid shelter was and why people used them in the past. They asked thoughtful questions and were fascinated by how different life was during that time. They enjoyed exploring how people kept safe and what the shelters were like inside.
Free Time
During free time, the children made new friends and played together outside. Some played football, others created their own dances, and a few enjoyed quieter games. It was wonderful to see them using their imaginations and including everyone.
