Just finished tea (7pm) and found time before diaries and the evenings scavenger hunt for a short update.
Mr Friend and Mrs Stiven joined one of the groups going up the gorge. All of the children were really impressive, trying some real challenges but helping and supporting each other. All of the children - Emily, Aicha, Helena, James, Ali, Finlay, Laura, Oskar, Gurmanik and Travis climbed up a waterfall and went through the keyhole. 3 brave childen then went under the rock of Africa!
Millie, Taylor, Courtney, Humna, Calum, Dylan, Shae, Turyyib and Danny spent the afternoon orienteering around the centre. In all the years of this activity no child has every collected the orienteering stations and brought them back......until a certain boy in Leith Primary arrived!!
Aimie, Chloe, Ellie, Jessica, Noor, Stefan, Zain, Armin, Sahil and Rebecca should have been sailing on the Holy Loch this afternoon however the wind has got much stronger (as Mr Friend found out on the ferry) and sailing had to be abandoned. The group all got a bumpy and wet ride in the speedboat before returning to do climbing on the wall at the centre.
I really want to click 'like' here, at the penultimate paragraph, with a big grinning icon for good measure... Great to hear - and see - everyone is having such fun (although through the keyhole sounds a bit TOO challenging for my liking).
ReplyDeleteSee you all soon - have a fantastic day. So pleased to hear Calum made it!
