Year 5 recently visited Stubbers Activity Centre in Upminster. The children enjoyed wonderful weather and some fantastic challenging activities. They needed to work together to solve tricky problems during the team challenges. The rock climbing wall proved a daunting prospect, but everybody tackled it with great vigour and determination. Year 5 also had the chance to channel their inner soldiers during the laser quest team event. Lastly, children managed to cool off in the lake during the Kata Kanu sailing task, with a number taking the opportunity to have a quick swim.
It was a tiring, but incredibly enjoyable day for Year 5 that was full of exciting challenges. We would like to thank all of the adult helpers that made the day possible and the children for their excellent behaviour and attitude from start to finish.
