Day 2 at Lendrickmuir started with a delicious breakfast of cereal and toast, with a cup of tea. After breakfast we had Time for Reflection when we talked about what made us us and what characteristics identified us. Then we went out and did our team challenges in the woods. This included different types of puzzles which tested our skills. Some of the puzzles were very difficult. When we completed a puzzle and worked as a team we earned team coins for our rocket challenge. The Dark Blue team won the most coins. The order for picking the rockets was decided by the number of coins that we had. When we had finished building our rockets we went out to the field and launched them. The Green team went the furthest.
After team challenges we had a yummy lunch of lentil soup and cheese pizza with coleslaw and salad. After lunch we went to our first activity of the afternoon. The activities included Kingswing, Bushcraft, Trail Biking, Gorge Walking, Jacob’s Ladder and Mini Survival. During our break at activities we all got a tasty muffin for our snack. The weather was wet and sunny which made our activities even more fun.
When our afternoon activities had finished and we had enjoyed our free team playing football or going to the adventure playground, we came in for dinner. Our choices were meatballs, macaroni cheese with bacon or veggie bolognese, then we had a delicious chocolate puddle pudding.
Our evening activity was called Murder Mystery. It tested our investigative skills as we tried to guess who the murderer was. The suspects included: the maid, the son, the daughter, the wife, the gardener and the chef. The murderer will remain secret as we don’t want to spoil it for next year’s Primary 7…
Now that we have had supper we are about to watch the rest of our movie and play a game of Stop the Bus.
