Day 1 – Year 5 at Kench Hill

After arriving and making our beds, we began working together in teams to build shelters and perfected our map reading skills as we completed some orienteering. For lunch, we had a lovely pizza meal which we all enjoyed! We have loved exploring our home for the week and we have also loved being outdoors and meeting new feathery friends.
