P7 Trip to Bridge End

June 14, 2024 gw19patersonelizabet@glow Leave a comment

Last week the Primary 7 children had an activity packed overnight trip out of the Isle and even the rain couldn’t dampen their spirits.

We first headed to the Gilbertson Hall for some extreme Frisbee and Dodgeball, delivered by active schools, after the golf was rained off.

The rain forced us indoors so we had an impromptu visit to the museum before heading to the Clickimin for swimming.

After working up an appetite we headed for some food at the Chinese where it was great to spend time chatting over dinner.

We travelled to Bridge End and got the chance to get settled in and it was finally dry so we could get outside to stretch our legs.

In the evening we were able to visit with Joy and enjoying an African Drumming session.

The next day we went for a visit to the Outpost, where we were lucky enough to meet all the animals and feed them. David spoke to us about all the animals and was a great host with many of the children saying that this part of their trip was the best part. We particularly loved the dancing emus, Kylie and Jason!

John Muir

On Thursday 18th of April P7 had John Muir we went to kergord and Pete and Grant was our helpers. Kergord is a very big woodland there are lots of trees and old bases made of sticks. First we were put in pairs and then we had to walk up to an old stone house. Then we had to go back down by our selves. After that we played follow the leader up the burn. Once we were all up the burn we had our snack. After that we built our bases out of sticks and branches we found on the ground. We were in boy and girl teams. Once we had finished building our bases then we had our dinner in the old house. Pete made a roof for the old house for shelter. After that we looked at both the boys base and the girls base to see which one was better. At the end we didn’t have much time so we just played the worlds best game. It was really fun and we have another John Muir in June.
