FRANK CHAPMAN UPDATE

After a hearty breakfast of their choice of multiple cereals, toast, yogurt and fruit the children were full and ready for the challenges today would bring.

Since breakfast , we have been really fortunate and dodged the rain all day ....so far! It has been great to joined today by Mrs Banning and Mr Oakes who have been able to work alongside the children too as part of the Year 6 team.

The children have completed caving, high ropes and the new blind-line teambuilding activity with success. It has been really great to see them developing their 'Team' value here and I have no doubt the skills they are discovering here will continue to develop far into Year 6.

As we near the late afternoon, the children are readying themselves for dinner and then tonight's activities before what we think maybe a slightly 'quieter night' as they rest and recharge after the last 48 hours, ready for tomorrow!

FRANK CHAPMAN UPDATE

The children all ate a hearty dinner followed by a dusk woodland experience, then a team pod quiz evening in the barn!

This mornings rain is subsiding as the children start now to get ready for the days events. Some seem to be a bit more bleary eyed than others after the excitement of a night in the pods!

Off for breakfast at 8am and first activities will begin just after 9am!
