Curling initiation test

Today we went curling at the north-west castle ice rink in stranrarer.When we arrived we went to the rink,and it was very slippery, I can tell you ! However, first of all we learned how to ” glide ” across the ice ,then let the stone shoot across the ice. Afterwards we all came together and some of us- including me- got shiny gold medals- I mean how EPIC is that?!!!

Curling

Hello!

      I’m Kathryn. I just went curling with my school and Kirkcowan School. I was in a group with Kristy, Connie and Iona. 🙂 I had loads of fun! 😀 Our instuctors were Michael and Wendy. They were so nice and I was so glad to have them as my instructor. After we had practised, we played a game between each group. Sadly… I didn’t win, but I really don’t care because it was too much fun!
