Our adventure
|
|
The Marfleet Primary news crew went on a residential trip with school to Acorn Adventures just outside Keswick in the Lake District.
Here's what they said.

|
It was brilliant! We stayed in tents. We had a go at gorge walking in the mountains, rock climbing, abseiling, orienteering and canoeing.
We played lots of games on the nights too like Generation Game and dressing up as superheroes.
We played lots of team games too. These help you to learn to:
Work together
Listen to each other
Not cheat
Not moan and grumble
For some children, it was their first night away from home/parents. If this happens to you, then it's ok to be a bit worried, but still go as it's a great experience.
