The children woke up to freezing temperatures here in Wales but that did not stop them participating in lots of activities.

The children started by doing several activities around the grounds including zip line, jump rope and climbing along a cliff face. Then after warming up and having their lunch, the children headed into the valley for some gorge walking. Here the children went into old mines, climbed up and down streams and showed great climbing ability to balance across the slippery rocks.

This evening after dinner, the children did some orienteering in the dark with their torches before going into spend their money at the Towers Shop, whilst others played pool and table tennis.

Here are a selection of pictures from today…

We are hoping for better weather for our last day tomorrow so that we can do some canoeing before heading home.

After arriving yesterday, the children made their beds, unpacked and had lunch. They then split into three groups and went on separate walks in the mountains along some lakes including Llyn Elsi. On arriving back at Towers, the children had dinner and pudding before getting ready for their evening activity. We then went out as a whole group for a night walk with torches into the local forest, which the children thoroughly enjoyed. We then returned for a hot chocolate with the children finally going to bed around 9.30.

Ten Year 2 children represented SS Peter and Paul at a multi skills event last week at Wolverhampton Grammar School. The children worked as a team to win as many points as possible in events that tested different skills including: balance, speed, target throwing and agility.

They performed brilliantly and ended up coming second, each achieving a silver medal. They also achieved a certificate which was presented to them in praise assembly. Thank you to all the parents that came to support their children, it was much appreciated.
