The P5s from Torphichen worked extremely well to build a shelter using natural resources in the forest. They have to create a shelter that would keep their fabric ‘man’ dry and the test was carried out with a watering can.

Taking on the role of an animal, the pupils had to find food, water and shelter and punch the marking at that post on their card. Whilst this was happening they had to watch out for the hunter (Mrs J), road kill ( Mrs A) and deadly disease ( Miss A) who were taking away their lives. They could get lives back from the Conservation Warden ( Mrs S) when they found a family member to help them. A lot of running about but good fun!

We had a fun camp fire last night with songs and jokes. We even got to toast marshmallows!!

Keegan, Shona, Gemma, Charlie, Euan and Duane had fun at the archery and bungee trampoline. Even Mrs Agini had a bounce!

Jessie, Tess, Heather, Lana, Robert and Christopher were off mountain biking this afternoon with Mrs Shiels. They all had a fantastic time out in the sun!
