Primary 7 were split into two groups last week to spend 2 days each at Carlingwark. While they were there the instructors took them up Screel hill, orienteering and mountain biking in Dalbeattie Forest. The children all worked well in their teams, supporting and encouraging one another. They learned many new skills and faced some challenges – particularly the weather! At night we had teddy bear competitions, dinner out, drama games as well as some crazier activities involving jelly babies and flour! The children were all a real pleasure to be with and had brilliant manners and listening skills with the instructors. Well done everyone! It certainly was an action packed week and I’ve really enjoyed reading your recounts on the experience in writing this week. It sounds like you all had a great time and took so much from it.
