If you look at our picture perhaps you can spot the winning pair! Afterwards the group did some team building and problem solving activities. Everyone enjoyed the session.
Primary 7 had a great time learning how to ski yesterday. The children were so proud of themselves, as they went from bambi, to seasoned pro on the red slope 🙂 lots of happy faces all round albeit a few bruises along the way.
Today group 6 had a great time hill walking, climbing and rolling down the hills 🙂 The scenery was breathtaking and the children really challenged themselves by climbing some tricky rocks. Even the boys and girls who were a little apprehensive, managed to surprise themselves and ended up having a ball!

I would also like to thank all parents/guardians for their support and encouragement at home. Well
