Year 1 Activity Day at Dell Farm May 18

Using Sports Premium funding Year 1 were treated to a day at Dell Farm trying new activities.  First the worked as a team to get across a 'swamp' to collect their equipment to make a den.  They were given two mats and had to decide how they were going to ge tto the other side.  Once they collected their bits they were shown how to make several knots using ropes.  Children then had to tie the rope to the tree, attach the tarpaulin and they take shelter.

After lunch they visited the animals on the farm and went into caves underground.  There were three different caves each with obstacles for the children to navigate through.

We had some very brave children.  They all worked together to ensure they entered as a team and left as a team too.
