Report by Year 3 Pupils:
Bus/Group!
The coach picked us up at 8:45 and the trip was really really good because my friends were sitting next to me. The driver kindly drove us to Alton Castle and back to school. The coach was really modern because there were LED lights, a mini skink and even a bathroom. There was a table and a foot rest. We had the same coach and driver coming back. Once we arrived, we got split into 2 groups. We had Mrs Moorst and Mrs Bhatti and Flix. The other group had Mrs Byrne and Lucas. (Shantelle)
Treasure Hunt!
In the treasure hunt we had picture clues on sheets. We had find symbols. All the symbols were based on Mass and the Holy Communion like: the cross, the Bible and a cup with the Blood of Christ. (Filip)
Meditation
We were lying on our backs while one of our instructors Flix or Lucas read a Scripture from the Bible. They read The Last Supper. We wrote or drew about our selves then put it in our bags if we were going to Holy Communion.
We put our fingers in ink and everyone put their finger-prints on a cross. (Kornelia)
Nightline
In the night line we had to put a blindfold over our eyes after we had walked into the forest. We had to hold a rope without left hand and we had to do an assault course and it was really long. To do this we needed to trust each other and to tell our friends what they had to do next. This taught us to communicate with each other in life. (Gerard)
Team building
After Meditation, we split into two groups and started our team building games. The first one was with pipes we had to connect them and the balls reach the bucket without falling.
The second was the caterpillar race, where you had to get inside an orange, plastic band and whoever went the fastest crossed the finish line and won.
The last one was to pull a string and balance it all the way to the otherside without dropping a ball. (Michelle)
