Swattenden Update 3 - Tuesday 2nd June - 14:30 pm: The children have participated in outdoor orienteering activities today including a new crate stacker activity that the children have thoroughly enjoyed & the weather has been an added ingredient to the fun they've all had.
Mrs Ballen & Ms Barratt told the office they have had a change of job title, they are now laundry maids, because they've put done lots of washing & drying of soggy clothes over the course of the two days. The best news is that the ch...ildren had a really good first night last night too.
Weather permitting, the children will enjoy a camp fire and night walk tonight around the grounds of the Swattenden Centre. If the weather is too bad tonight they have a talent show and scrap heap challenge planned in place.
We are so pleased to hear the fun that the children are having - lets just hope that the weather gets better for them tomorrow.
