We are currently making our way back to Laches Wood after a fun-filled day in the Cadbury factory. The 4D ride was a particular highlight for many children. Oh, and not forgetting the chocolate tasting and gift shop of course!
It was amazing to see so many children engaged in the rainforest talk too, sharing their knowledge from lessons taught back at school. The leaders were super impressed and once again shared how we were a credit to our school.
The children had a great night last night. All seem to have caught up on sleep and have survived their second room inspection.
After breakfast, we are already en route to Cadbury's World and ready for a day of chocolate!
A fantastic day. So many of the children achieved far more than they thought they might today. We were delighted by some incredibly positive feedback from some of the instructors here about the brilliant attitudes of the children. We finished the day with a campfire in the gorgeous evening light, surrounded by birdsong.
Good morning!
The children slept reasonably well for the first night! We have refuelled for the day with a good breakfast and the first room inspections have taken place. We were very impressed with some of the dorm room greetings; next time we're looking for close attention to detail!
Now time for our first activity of the day!
Our day finished with an evening team activity of 'Global Domination' and a cup of hot chocolate. The children are now tucked up in bed getting a much needed sleep before a full day of fun tomorrow!
Wow! It was an action packed afternoon of canoeing for some groups and BMX biking and rock climbing for others.
The children have already faced fears and learnt new skills.
After a delicious meal, we are now spending time outside before our evening activity begins!
We have arrived! The sun is shining, lunch has been eaten, the beds are somewhat made... and we're ready for our first activities!
