Coniston
We met our group leaders and we decided to climb the high ropes. We climbed to the Leap of Faith and each child faced their fears and jumped off the platform attempting to hit a large floating ball. Mickey had a wobble on the pole on Tuesday yet here he climbed up and jumped off the platform without hesitation, we were all so proud of him. We climbed the tallest tree on the grounds, all pushing ourselves and achieving great things. Lexi froze at the top and after a little coaxing, let go of the tree to abseil down. Avie needed coaxing up to the top and made it, Hallie and Ameilia were both at the top in a blink of an eye. Joseph climbed till he felt comfortable then we coaxed him up five move bars which was amazing!

Our last day has sadly arrived. The weather was glorious even though it was a little chilly. We put on our waterproofs and got ready to canoe across the lake. We worked as a team and canoed to Peel Island where we ventured out of the canoe to have an explore. We played some games our favourite was sardines, we had so much fun. Time flew by and suddenly it was time to canoe back to Water Park to have lunch.

This morning was dry and sunny. The last activity we took part in was kayaking. We played games and a few of us fell into the lake including Miss Evans. After showers for those who fell in, we had an early lunch and waited for the other groups to meet and discover who had won the cleanest changing rooms.
