Wednesday Evening

A really good, energy filled day! The very exciting 3G swing has been tried and tested and the wait was very much worth it!! It was a day for the girls. As the 6Q girls easily defeated the boys in team tech and the 6H girls were the easy winners in the problem solving task with the tyres!! A certain male twin in 6Q did his best to take his quad completely out of the course, but the barriers won!-we were hoping he wasn't trying to completely escape! Weather hasn't been as sunny as yesterday, but still really warm. Have to prepare ourselves for the onslaught of some cold and rain tomorrow-however we've been so lucky so can't complain. Mr.Reed has just enforced the strictest of room inspections, with unbelievably all the children rising to the task and making the grade.
Here's the boys comments from today:
Tom 6R:3G swing was amazing, real adrenaline rush!! Problem solving was really good as we had to work together. Team tech was pretty similar but we had to build things instead of solve. Dorm has got loads of space has we only have 2 bunks (editor note: this doesn't mean there room is tidy or that they have won any kitkats!!) I really like our group as we all work really well together.
George 6H:3G swing was massive fun, I was a bit nervous at first but when I got up there it was really fun. I had to pull the chord and let us go-James was just squealing. Zip wire was great as I'm not that great with heights, but I knew I'd already been that high with abseil, so when I got to the top I just went for it. I like the food although maybe its not that good for me! (you're right there George!!) Lovely roast dinner tonight though!
Ewan 6Q: Balance beam was really cool, climbing to the top and walking into the middle and leaning back. The way 3G swing just went straight back down and you started swinging was amazing. I have a really good dorm-lots of people have fitted in to such a small space. My favourite food has been pasta.
So 3 satisfied customers there. I can personally recommend the 3g swing as well, although I'm not sure that Sam D-S in my class was to enthralled at spending the highlight of his week on a swing with his teacher! Some great photos and videos been taken, but you''ll have to wait for our return to view them. Right, I'm off to murder mystery, hopefully I'll find a few volunteers to mysteriously murder!

  2. George, don't worry about the unhealthy food. We are planning a week of carrots and spinach when you get back!
    Good to hear you're going for it and having fun. Make sure you win at least one kitkat by the end of the week.

    all our love
