Percussion-tastic!

Well here we are on day 3. The combination of a busy day yesterday and a late night at the campfire made for a much better nights sleep. Night patrol for the staff was much more relaxing with even the chance of a cup of tea and some sweet treats.

Bright and early this morning, we all got dressed and showered ready for our room inspection and breakfast. We all scored well on the tidying and enjoyed a tasty meal of sausage, egg and beans. After breakfast, we had to get ourselves prepared for water sports activities.

Filled with excitement, we all hot footed it up to the water sports chalet to meet our instructors and get all of the equipment. With a wiggle and a squeeze we made it into our wetsuits (with only one split bottom seam!) and listened to the safety talk carefully.

The beach was a little walk from the centre along some twisty paths; very tricky to manouvre an oar or padel through these but we all made it in one piece. When we arrived at the beach, we used our excellent listening skills again to make sure that we all stayed safe and had fun. Miss Surman had one final check that she had the correct footwear on and then it was time to take to the water.

Everyone really enjoyed their time in the canoes and kayaks even if we needed a little helping hand at first. Miss Bairstow even lost a shoe in the quicksand and had to borrow Miss Surman’s to walk home. Thank goodness for the emergency high heels in Miss Surman’s rucsack!

Back at PGL, we all warmed up with a hot shower then enjoyed a lunch of burgers, chips and salad. I hope we will have enough energy to enjoy our afternoon activities and of course, the disco!

Tight squeeze!

OOOOPS!!!

“Thisis great fun!”
