Continuing our topic of Brilliant Bodies and Brilliant Brains, we made our faces using natural materials that we found outside. We had great fun designing !

Today we used as many objects as we could find in our classroom to make 100! We had to make 10 groups of 10 to make it very clear and easy to count.  We were very creative in how we presented our 100.

The day started with two groups doing archery and another learning to fence. We all had to work in teams at raft building in the afternoon, with great success. We also tackled some initiative exercises, learnt how to survive in the wilds and had a go at abseiling.

We are learning about graffiti art this half-term and started by making our own names in a graffiti style. We used shading to create a 3D effect. We also chose bright colours that pop out of the page. We are really proud of our pictures and we hope you like them too!

The rain held off for us this morning, whilst we all enjoyed canoeing and kayaking on the lake. In the afternoon and evening we had a variety of activities to try out, including low ropes, crate stacking and axe throwing. 

We had so much fun today, we learnt some Bollywood dancing, we got to use some scarves and we also learnt some skills with the hoops.
