On arrival, the children (and some adults) ran straight to the low ropes course while the other adults unloaded the cars and packed things away. We then went on a tour of the site and raised our Kelsale School flag.
Wen then went for our first explore along the beach. It was a little blustery but there were lots of treasures to be found, including huge numbers of very pretty snails. Some of these were adopted by the children and brought back to the centre for an impromptu snail race. Both Willy and Winky performed particularly well but, unfortunately, Winky plummeted into the bushes and has not been seen since.
To take full advantage of the weather, we followed this with a kite making session. We took a range of materials, designed, made and then flew our kites. They had varying success but it was excellent fun.
We then put up our tents in the camp site...
and had dinner, spag bol cooked by Lucy with a few helpers. We all had at least double helpings and are now preparing the campfire for a lovely end to a lovely first day. Fabulous behaviour from all the children. All happy and health and very full!
Wow they all look like they had great fun xx
