After months of waiting, today finally arrived and we set off to

Liddington with all of our year 6 friends.

Despite the rain, our spirits remained high and we enjoyed laying square

eggs, walking like crabs and singing our hearts out during whacky

races!! Everyone tucked into either sausages, chicken or veggie roast

followed by a tasty choc ice.

We are now settling down for the night thinking about all of the fun

activities that await us in the morning.

Tuesday 1st October 2019

After first breakfast at Liddington, we persevered through the rain to

overcome many of our fears and tried activities that we had never

experienced before. Activities included mountain biking, archery, buggy

building, zip wire and abseiling. A number of us learnt how to ride a

bike for the first time and even managed to score a bullseye in the

archery target!

Take a look at a sample of our fantastic day.

Wednesday 2nd October 2019

After a hearty breakfast, we set off to our morning activities in the

sunshine!! Today’s new experiences included the challenge course, problem

solving activities, giant swing, survivor and vertical challenge. We faced

our fears with a smile. Doesn’t everything seem so much easier when

the sun is out and the sky is blue? I wonder what we will accomplish

tomorrow.

Thursday 3rd October 2019

We were rudely awoken this morning by the fire alarm! Turns out that

someone from another group had opened the bathroom door whilst the

hot shower was running!! In Hilltop style, we carried on regardless

and participated in a whole range of exciting activities including the ever

popular crate challenge, abseiling, vertical challenge, survivor and raft

building. We ended our evening huddled next to a roaring hot camp

fire whilst feasting on marshmallows and singing songs. What a perfect

end to our week at Liddington.

Friday 4th October 2019

Although our adventures are now over, the memories we have created

will stay in our hearts and minds forever. Our final day was spent

taking the leap of faith off the top of the trapeze tower and canoeing

around the lake, accompanied by a family of resident ducks.

We are all proud of the way in which we have supported each other

and overcome our fears throughout the week. We have accomplished so

much in such a little time and will use this experience to help us to reach

for the stars and become the best that we can be when we return to

school.
