the primary 5-7’s went to  Galloway activity Centre from May 30th to June the  1st.  we went on the bus their in the morning. When we got off one person from every 3 had to pick up a tent and bring it to where we wore setting up . After Miss Staple ton and miss Pattie told us where to pitch our tents We all went to our spot and set them up. The teachers set us up into two groups and they both did different things on the first day one group did archery and the other group did laser tag then we switched so that every group got a shot doing each off the activity’s. For dinner we got chicken nuggets and chips and we had the option off beans . there was also a big clubhouse that is where we ate dinner and the bathrooms wore in there. It was good because when it was to rainy we got to stay in there. On the last night it was extremely rainy and we had to stay in the clubhouse until we choose to go the bed

the Activity’s

archery: One of the first activity we did was archery. We all got into a team off four and gave our group a name after the groups went up in turns to try and shoot at the target. We also played a game called pizza all the groups went up in turns as usual but this time we wore aiming to make a pizza all the targets meant a different thing .

laser tag: When we went to laser tag the first thing we did was get a gun the guns also had head sets so when somebody died the gun would say something like “man down” or just make a beeping noise and the headset would flash red. There wore two teams the red team and the blue team. the instructor had the ability to revive us with her special reviving  gun.

paddle boarding: One of the water activity’s was paddle boarding we had to get into a two and go on to the same paddle board the person in the back had there ankle strapped with a strap and it was attached to a wire so if the person feel off they wouldn’t float to far away. We also wore body suits and life jackets so we would float if we feel in.

Slip n slide: The slip n slide also known as a water slide was a big slide going down the hill it had soup and bubbles in it and people went to quite quick there wore to slides so people wore racing.

rock climbing: At residential there was also a big rock climbing wall so got attached to a Harness and had to try to go to the top where there was a button. If we clicked it it would make a buzzing noise and we jumped down.

The big swing: The big swing was a massive swing u went on with two other people. A string would lift u up and then a guy would count u down after the swing went very high in the air and then came down.

BOAT RACING:  The last activity we did was boat racing we had to put safety jackets on. And  raced against the other group that was there . We all got into teams and so did the other school after we had to collect a paddle and hop on a boat two people on one seat. Luckily nobody tipped over. I think the other school won .
