DAY 2
After a *very* early start this morning, we sat down for a mixed breakfast of cereal, bacon, hash browns, spaghetti hoops, and toast. We packed up the lunches we made last night into our rucksacks before booting up and starting the over-2 km hike to Padley Manor and Chapel, where we learnt about the history! We then headed up to play some hide-and-seek, before rounding off the second section of our walk at a hidden spot for den building! We had some time to find materials in the forest and build our shelters before heading back to St. Michael's to cool off from the hot weather!
Following the relaxing and playing, we had a dinner of fish fingers, chips, and mushy peas, as well as apple crumble and ice cream for dessert! We had the rest of the evening to ourselves, with outside activities, inside drawing, or some time in our dorms, before another drink and biscuit to finish the day! We watched some of the football, although it was too late to watch it all - Mrs. J was loving it!
A massive congratulations to all of the children who, despite the weather and several steep hills, made sure to stay hydrated, suncreamed, and held a positive attitude to the activities they were given!
