Belchamps

Belchamps

As we arrived, we put down all our belongings and started to have free time for 15 minutes. Then we all got told our rooms and our activity groups. We went to our rooms and picked a bed for the night and made our beds. 

After they wanted to do a fire bell practice just so we know what it sounds like. Finally, we got to see all the activities we would be doing on our trip. Then we had lunch at 12:00pm and it took us about 10 minutes to be quiet. After lunch, we went off to our first activity. Both of us did archery. Each activity was about 45 minutes long. 

Next it was about 1:45pm and we had about a 10 minute break in our rooms and we got crisps. The next activity we did was traversing Ropes and it rained whilst we were doing it. It also got really really cold and the activities got very wet. Then it was dinner and we had burger and chips. 

Then they let us go for a walk around Hockley Woods and we got to go in the park for about 20 minutes on our walk.It was about 8:00pm when we got to the camp fire and sung lots of songs and had a little dance and then we got hot chocolate and marshmallows. Then at 8:45 pm we headed back to our rooms and got in our PJ's. All of the rooms were so loud at first but then they calmed down a little bit. Most of the rooms got tired.



DAY 2


Anna's room woke up at 6:00am and Leila's woke up at 6:30am and we already were fully awake. Then we were told to get changed and pack all our stuff up so we did at about 7:00am and then they turned on some music in the hallway and we got to dance. At 8:00am we got breakfast and me and katie both were allowed 3 sausages.


The first activity was the Leap of faith and then the abseiling which was so fun then we packed up and left.
