With the sun blazing, groups 1 and 2 stepped into their harnesses as they travelled to St David's Head for a day of abseiling and coasteering. The children began with a brisk walk along the coast before 'bouldering' to perfect their climbing positions. Conquering their fears, children took the nerve-wracking step back off the cliffs and began their descent. A well earned break followed to allow the confident climbers to eat their sandwiches and celebrate their achievements. It was then time to travel in the opposite direction up the rocks. After a little seal spotting, the children walked back to meet the coach, but not before they'd had a delicious ice cream.
Group 3 spent their day on water: in the morning they worked in teams to build rafts which would transport them around a lake and in the afternoon they took to ready made boats to sail around. Despite a few capsized boats, the children enjoyed the thrill of being captains. In the evening, groups 1 and 2 played team games and it was group 3's turn to take on the assault course. With only one more day of activities to go, children got into bed excited about what Friday would bring.
