Culture NL Libraries are once again taking part in The Reading Agency’s Summer Reading Challenge, the theme of which is “Mythical Maze”.~ The challenge aims to get children reading at least 6 books over the summer with 3 staged prizes and a final medal ceremony in October.
On Wednesday 14th May, pupils from all stages took part in the Mobile Adventure Course. It was lots of fun especially the rope swing but a little bit scary trying to climb over the 6ft wall!! We hope you enjoy looking at the photos!
Today we have been taking part in lots of fun activities, we have been mountain biking, gorge walking, coasteering, going on safari, rock climbing, canoeing and kayaking. Here are some photos from our day.
After a very exciting morning, we left Bellshill for the long bus journey to Kilbowie Outdoor Centre. The bus journey felt very long and in some places the road was very bendy, but thankfully no one was sick. The bus driver said we deserved an award, as that doesn’t happen very often. We stopped for a comfort break at the Green Wellie and also ate our snacks.
Before long we arrived at Kilbowie. We had a lovely lunch then had to take our cases to our rooms. We had to be really quick as our instructors were waiting to take us out on our first activity. We all went off in our activity groups and had a really great time. Some of us were kayaking and others walking around the coast, most of us got very wet. The boys were very shocked at how cold the sea was.
After dinner, we bought lots of sweeties at the tuck shop and had some free time. Some of the boys played a game of football while everyone else chilled out in the lounge or games room.
Evening activities were “The Airport Game” and “Picture Orienteering”. They were lots of fun. The teachers were very glad that they involved lots of running around so that we would be tired and go to sleep on time.
After birthday cake for supper we went up to our rooms. We had time to chat for a while before lights out at 10.30pm.
Who knows what adventures are in store tomorrow!!!!
