Today we went up kindrogen hill. It was really steep most of the way up. There was a grave yard just after the start, there was a grave that had two names on it. One of the names was called France’s Balfour and her sister was called Mary Balfour; Lizzy (our tutor) told us a story about Mary and how she fell in love with the game keeper but her dad found out and told him to leave so he did but he lived in a cave about hour and a half away from kindrogen and Mary still went to he him secretly but her dad found out so he tried to shoot him but Mary jumped in front of him and her dad shot her.

When we got back we made bird boxes. That’s all from me. Day 4. It’s been another great day!!

Hey guys. Wish you were all here. We are all sitting lounging about waiting   for Ben and Rachel to come and round us all up to go to the classroom. Today was amazing we all got to go on the low ropes, we got to try our hand at starting a fire in the woods next to all the huge lochs.

I can’t wait to toast all of my marshmallows at the bonfire tomorrow night. Right now I feel really excited about the bonfire.

Well we have just had our fish n chips dinner and are all full! I think it was the mandarin and toffee desert that did it. Another great day… This afternoon we did the low ropes learning to rust each other and then completing the course… Of course we all managed. We then had more attempts at fire starting. The sparks for flint and steel are amazing. We even got a few going… Stay tuned for more details from the people that matter…the children.

After another cooked breakfast 7b headed out to check their traps set last night… We were in luck with a vole and 5 mice guests in our straw hotels. Who knew mice could jump so high. Boots at the ready for the Cataran Trail and fire starting with flint and steel!

Weather is dull but the kids are not! All good #kindrogan #magnificent7

This afternoon we were building rafts and going on them for a practise before we did a race. I was really scared before I went on but when I did I was fine and I managed it and is was really fun.

We are all getting ready to walk to the raft building… Excited kids and lots of wellies waiting. Can’t wait to see how we get on… #magnificent7

Today we went pond diping in a small pond. We found some interesting things and my group got some things that other groups didn’t get one of them was a beetle larva and another thing. When I got the Kindrogan pond monster (beetle larva) I felt excited. No one could believe the size of it!! It was even funnier when it tried to escape! This afternoon were going to be doing raft building and I’m really  exited.
