Adventure Day

Today we went on an adventure trip which was full of different challenges. Firstly we walked for one mile through a pitch black tunnel with rough walls, uneven floor and it stunk of stale water with no teachers or instructors to help us. We kept our spirits up by singing at the top of our voices so that Mr Collins knew where we were but ended up driving him mad!

Secondly we went down a zip wire over a ravine. We posed for photos as we swung into action, they consisted of: superman, aeroplane and firepower, the instructors stood below us and splashed us with water. Thirdly we abseiled down a big waterfall into a canyon before walking through the stream to the next waterfall. We then headed back up the hill to the first waterfall, during which our boots got filled with water all the way to the top and sometimes we fell over.

Lastly we walked upstream through strong currents and up small waterfalls. We then went behind waterfalls, we slid down streams with currents from the waterfall, and when we got to a bit we had to swim out of James King lost a welly and he walked back with only one welly. One of the memorable moments we encountered was when Devin was swept away over a waterfall travelling at pace through Mr Collins' legs who swivelled on a six-pence like lightning , rushing to save the day. We are pleased to report that Devin is alive and well, with only a little bit of water in his ears.

What an adventure! We cant wait to come back to Glasbury.
