What an amazing first day we have had!
Today we have enjoyed crate climbing, outdoor laser tag, rafted canoeing and windsurfing. Everyone has shown such determination and enthusiasm for the activities, it has been great to see!
We have been so lucky with the weather too, we hope it remains for the duration of our stay.
We enjoyed some kick ball rounders tonight and are getting ready to enjoy marshmallows around the campfire soon.

Our eco group were asked along to help plant trees to restore the banks of the River Nith. It was a beautiful day for our outing, however the soil was very hard because it hasn’t rained for so long! We planted willow trees along the river bank as part of SEPA’s flood defence work and restoring the river for the wildlife.
