Hello everyone,

 

All is well here in Hathersage and we've had another action-packed day.

 

The children got up at 7.00am and had scrambled egg, beans and toast for breakfast. Today's activities were orienteering and a river study. The children were very good with the maps whilst orienteering and they definitely had their daily exercise, running around the course. Whilst carrying out the river study, we caught lots of crayfish and managed to identify some of the other creatures. We also had a raft race. The children were challenged to build a raft which could transport a rubber duck down the river - it proved quite tricky!

 

Our well-earned tea was cottage pie with carrots and pies, followed by treacle sponge and custard.

 

Tonight, we held our talent show - lots of dancing, jokes and artwork on display. The children are now fast asleep, looking forward to another fascinating day tomorrow.

 

More news tomorrow night!
