First thing this morning we had breakfast which was cereal and toast. We then had to get into our groups for morning activities. The lime green group went to bungee trampolines and then Octo-Ball. For Octo-Ball you were not allowed to kick the ball you could only slap it. The aim of the game was last man standing. To get people out you had to make the ball hit them below the knee. If the ball went out of the octagon the last person to touch it was out. Octo-ball was really fun because it was like a competition. It was a really challenging sport.
The red, orange, yellow and light blue groups went on a nature walk this morning. The groups learnt that there are two different types of trees – deciduous and evergreen. We also looked for signs of red squirrels. We learned about different plants, moss and lichen. We did a scavenger hunt and during that we found a newt (an amphibious lizard), some plants and a bird’s egg.
In the afternoon the red and orange groups went to the King Swing. When we were on the swing and we were at the point we wanted to go to, we had to pull the cord to release the swing. Most of us managed to go to the top of the King Swing. We really enjoyed the King Swing and some of us even went on more than once.
Another activity that the yellow group and the purple group did today was the Pizza Box Challenge. We had to wear a harness and climb to the top of the tower. The top of the tower was a square the size of a pizza box that we had to stand on. If you reached the top more people got to come up and we were then able to join up and lean back. We were allowed to have up to 4 people at the top. The Pizza Box challenge was fun but a bit wobbly at the top.
The yellow, red, orange and light blue group all went to the nightline but we don’t want to tell you too much about that and spoil the surprise for everyone else tomorrow.
Dinner tonight was a choice of macaroni, pepperoni pizza or vegetable pasta. There was then a chocolate puddle cake for dessert.
Tonight’s activity was the Murder Mystery. Eight of us got to play the part of the suspects – butler, daughter, son, maid, cook, lady, gardener and grandad. In groups we had to go round questioning the suspects and we then had to choose as a group who we thought the murderer was. The suspects were then allowed to give us their plea as a final chance to convince us it wasn’t them. We then chose who we thought it was before the murderer was revealed. The suspects acting skills were very good and they were very convincing. So convincing that no one guessed who the murderer was.
We are now going to have supper and then it’s time for showers, before we continue our movie. Good night from everyone at Lendrick Muir and we will be back tomorrow to tell you about day 3.
