Arran trip- Day 3 Wednesday 23rd November

What a fantastic day’s activities today – mountain biking, climbing wall and Hill walking to the King’s cave, finishing off with night-time orienteering.

Here are just a few comments :

Josh – I’ve learned how to ride a bike. I’m dead proud of myself.

Teegan – what an amazing place King’s Cave is – this is the cave where Robert the Bruce hid in before the Battle of Bannockburn. Remember the story of the spider – well this is where this happened. I loved it.

Robbie – I got to the top of the climbing wall. I was also praised for my work as a bilet. V, knee, 1,2,3!

William S – Fun, fun, fun! Cycling in the hills of Arran with the sun shining on my face! Cool!

Lewis H – Climbing wall was awesome – I came 3rd in the wee competition our group set up.

Ethan – My legs got plenty exercise as we cycled in the hills!

Calvin – We toasted marshmallows in a cave – gorgeous!

Caitlyn – Best day so far! I won the climbing competition with a time of 28 seconds! That was climbing up 7 metres then abseiling down!

Lewis G – best day ever going to King’s cave where Robert the Bruce hid from the English soldiers.

Max – Dead proud of myself because I conquered my fear of heights and won the climbing competition with a time of 24 secs.

Emily – I won the competition where we had to dangle from a horizontal bar for as long as we could. GIRL POWER!

Chloe – Today I learned to ride a bike – I only fell once! Not bad, eh?

Skye – My instructor said she was most proud of me because I exceeded my climbing goals. That felt good.

Victoria – today was the best day ever! I learned how to ride a bike – thanks to Adam our instructor. I was really scared at first but he was so patient especially as I thought I was going to fall but he talked me through it and gave me the confidence to just go for it. Also, I climbed to the top of the climbing wall – 7 metres tall! WOW! I’m so pleased with my achievements today.
