Thursday at Trewern





































We are all very tired now and the computers aren't working properly so I thought that we would just finish this Trewern Blog by saying that we have all had a lovely time here at Trewern. However some of us are now missing home and we can't wait to get back home to loved ones. Therefore here are some pictures of the activities. As you can see the children are having a wonderful time!!!

Hello from Trewern, we have had a lovely day with lots of sunshine. Two groups went to the cathedral today the other went climbing. All though some of us are very tired we are all having fun.

I know some of you children at school got frustrated today that your comments don't go on the blog straight away but this helps to keep our Blog as safe as possible.

Anyway enough from the teachers here what the children wrote about today.


Group 3


Today in group three we went on a gorge walk and it was so wet and also very cold. But we all encourage each other. We also done some rock climbing which was quite hard but once we got the hang of it most of us did well and got to the top. In the walk some of us went down a waterfall with a enormous splash.

Group 1 and 2


Today in group1 and 2 we went to Hereford cathedral to make some picture,by coloring over some pictures of stuff. Our second activity at Hereford cathedral was going to the top of the
church tower to where the bell was, then even higher to the roof. Later on we went to look at the ancient map of Mundi which shows Europe, Asia and Africa. The maps were on cow skin and the paint was made of animals blood.
Our other activity was the mountain walk, and we walked up the mountain with all sheep and horse poo. Once we got to the top our teacher aloud us to roll down it some people rolled right through some of the poo, luckily we were all wearing our water proofs.

A lot of what you learn in Trewern is not just about the outdoors, the children have to do a lot of tasks that they would normally leave to their Mums and Dads. The children have to keep the house tidy, make their own lunches and do all of the washing up.
