As the sun peeked through the breaking clouds, our excited pupils arose from their slumber and enjoyed a hearty cooked breakfast.
Excitedly, Group 1 headed to the coast to clamber over rocks and conquer their fears with giant leaps into the sea. Group 2 also encountered the challenge of the wetsuit as they rode the waves at Newgale Beach. In true Robin Hood style, Group 3 had to earn their cutlery for dinner through a series of tasks at the archery range whilst Group 4 were mini Mowglis as they glided through the trees on the adrenaline pumping high ropes course!
The afternoon saw roles reversed, as both groups 3 and 4 took to the water to kayak and build rafts (which only lasted a few minutes!). Bear Grills was given a run for his money as Group 1 learnt the art of bushcraft whilst Group 2 tackled the high ropes.
As the sun sank below the horizon, baths of mud were enjoyed by groups 1 and 2 as they took to the Trim Trail. Like army officers, groups 3 and 4 crawled through the assault course, working as a team to ensure that their entire group made it back in time for hot chocolate.
