Year 3 Hindleap Warren Trip - ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½

ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½

Year 3ÌýpupilsÌýset offÌýfor in the pouring rainÌýon Tuesday Morning.ÌýDespite the weather, not a single complaint was heard all day as theÌýpupilsÌýthrew themselves into theÌývariousÌýactivities on offer.ÌýÌý

They started with shelter building (appropriately, in the rain)Ìýand were tasked with constructing a weatherproof shelter using only tarpaulin and some ropes. The children quickly rose to the task, gathering logs and creating some wonderful shelters. Some even included floorboardsÌýand TVÌýstands!Ìý

ThenÌýit was time for the obstacle course. It was slippery in the wet, but the children climbed and scrambled, helping each other by using the ‘Ninja Squirrel’ pose to support their partner on ropes or tyres.ÌýIt was great to see the teamwork displayedÌýbyÌýthe pupils, really demonstrating the ÐÔÊÀ½ç´«Ã½ spirit.ÌýÌý

ÌýAfterÌýlunch, the children went on an Earth Walk. This involved paying close attention to nature and gathering a variety of objects from the forest (something prickly, something smooth, something furry, something that smelled nice) to create a potion, which was thenÌýnamed,Ìýand its magic powers described to the group.Ìý

ÌýIt was a wonderful introduction toÌýHindleapÌýfor the Year 3s, who will be spending the night in Year 4 (though not in a self-constructed shelter!).Ìý
