A practically perfect performance of Mary Poppins. If you reach for the heavens you get the stars thrown in! What a lot of stars we have…the performance was supercalifragilisticexpialidocious !
Today was our last day of camp and the sun shone again all day. We abseiled, tackled the low rope challenge and worked hard to stack our crates as high as possible. Some of us managed to stack 12 crates on top of each other with teamwork. Flavio managed to climb the tree in 38 seconds and we are very proud of the people who tackled their fear of heights by abseiling down from a huge height. We completed our John Muir Explorer Challenge, then had a fantastic time at our disco tonight. Camp has been the best fun ever.
We had a fantastic day on camp… the sun shone and we had a lot of fun in all of our activities – canoeing, challenge course, zip- wiring and abseiling. We created collages using materials from nature as part of our ‘John Muir Explorer Challenge’. We had a lot of help from our friend the Midgie tonight!
Today it was hot,hot,hot…..we went canoeing, had fun on the zipwire, some of us went mountain biking, solved tricky problems and managed to get the egg around the challenge course without breaking it! Here are some of our photos..
Hi everyone…. we are all exhausted after our first day on Camp. We’ve been mountain biking, tree climbing, crate stacking, solving problems and tackling the low ropes! Can’t wait until tomorrow….
