Hi this is by Chloe P., Shannon + Katie.

Today we woke up and started the day with another lovely breakfast! Then after that we had our normal dorm duties and inspections then we headed off to our activities. Today our activities were the same options as yesterday but different groups did them.Just after the morning activities we came back and had lunch (yum yum!).We then set off for our afternoon activities. Mrs Simpson's group went gorgewalking and got drenched , unluckily Katie was in that group! Mrs Maddox's group went absailing it was very high but we were safely attached to the rope and harness! Shannon and Chloe were in that group and both of them succeded in getting down the rocks. We then came back for juice and muffins (more yummy food!). We are waiting for our tea now.Then after we will watch our friends preform in our own 'Benmore's Got Talent!'

Overall we have all had a great day! Here are some pictures of: Biking, High Ropes and Canoeing. That's all we have time for just now because our spaghetti bolognese is calling! Bye bye see you soon x

Hi this is Katie + Chloe.P, we are doing the blog today! Today we started with a lovely cooked breakfast, the groups then split up to do their different activites which included: High ropes/low ropes, Gorgewalking, Mountain Biking, Forest walks and one group had some options to choose from. We then had lunch altogether. After a lovely lunch we split up again to do our second activity which was a different one from the morning, we all returned safely and were welcomed back with juice and jam donuts ! Now we are waiting for our tea ( Chicken Curry/Baked Potato! ) We have our final activity of the day after our tea, but we're afraid we don't know what it is ! That is all we have to say because our tea is calling ! Everyone is well here, we are all missing you but having a brilliant time as well! Bye bye xx
P.S. See you soon!

Hi, this is our camp blog entry by Katie + Hannah. So far we have had a wonder around the inside and the outside of the Benmore Centre and around the botanic gardens which are situated in the grounds of the Benmore Centre, we then went down puddle lane and got really wet and muddy! We had a lovely tea of Fish + Chips! And for dessert, yoghurt and fruit. We then had some free time in which we could go to the tuck shop and some people bought postcards so keep an eye out for them! We then finished off a brilliant day by getting into our waterproofs ( they had mostly dried from puddle lane! ) and going on a night walk, which was really scary but fun as well! The teachers then chose one person from each of their groups and they were awarded with a chocolate bar! They were awarded for things like: overcoming fears, being encouraging and being brave. Night night !

Arrived at Benmore!

All pupils arrived safe and sound after a journey through some of Scotland's most beautiful countryside. Everyone is now settled and very happy with their new dorm buddies, and even making their own beds!!

Stay tuned for the first 'Pupil Report' later this evening!
