Monthly Archives: September 2017

Yesterday (20th September 2017) we came back from Pentrellyncymer and it was so much fun.

We met two extremely cute dogs called Brack and Mabel . On the first day we had a fire drill which was a bit weird because I was in my socks! After that we all had lunch that we had brought from home and found out which dorms we were in. Everybody from Trelawnyd school (only year 5) were in the same room! The boys (Ben, Matteo and Joshua) were in a different room to the girls (Daisy, Evie, Lillia, Lucy, Me, Summer and Faith).

Then we went rock climbing and I was the first to get to the top! At the end we could go on any of the climbing walls with a man called Jim (who owns Brack)so me and one other person went on the hardest one and got about halfway!

Later on we had supper at 5:00 then at 9:00 we had a hot chocolate and some biscuits. We stayed up until one AM on the first night. Summer looked in her notebook to do some doodling and inside it said, “charlie charlie Summer you will see me in your dorm.” It was very creepy but we were all very brave. We think it was someone in our dorm.

The next day we went canoeing and I jumped in the water- it was so cold!Once we were all warm and dry we got dressed and we relaxed for a while (about half a hour). After that we went to do some bush craft skills like: Den building for Bob (Jim’s thumb) and ourselves, fire lighting and marsh mellow toasting! Later on we did a picture search (we found fifteen out of eighteen parts in a book of pictures)and made awesome pizzas! They were so tasty Evie and I worked together and made a very nice pizza that was a roundish sort of oval shape even if it was not that nice. We stayed up until 12:00 that night.

The next day we packed most of our stuff and found out who won the point competition for the cleanest dorms and our dorm came second place! After that we went on a long mountain walk with a guy called Stephan. He showed us lots of places like Alwen reservoir. We also got to have a dairy milk hot chocolate.

After that we went to the gift shop and I got a green glow in the dark snap band, a blue backpack key ring, a blue trail ball and a light brown, rainbow pencil. After that we went to get our bags back but my handle was broken! Mrs Hughes carried my bag for me until we got to the bus. I sat next to my friend (a boy called Ben) until we got back to school. At the end I was so excited.Once we were inside we watched about a half a hour of Star Wars and went to get our bags from the junior cloakroom and went to wait outside for our mums, dads,brothers,sisters or whoever else was waiting for all of us.

We got on the bus at about half past nine in the morning . We were the last school to get on the bus . On the way there I was chatting with my friends . It took us an hour and a half to get there . We arrived there at eleven o’clock . When we got there we put our suitcases in to the corridor and went in to the classroom for a talk about what we need to do . A lady took us to our room.

I was in a room with Lillia, Lucy, Evie, Summer, Faith, Abbi . When we saw our room we got our bags out of the corridor and decided where we were sleeping . I slept on one of the top bunk beds . There were four bunk beds in each room . After we chose our beds we unpacked our bags in to the drawers we had a drawer each .

At one o’clock we went in to the hall to have lunch. In my lunch bag I had: tuna sandwiches, a packet of crisps and a chocolate bar .

After lunch we went climbing. We were told what we had to wear and went in to our room to get it on . We were climbing across the road in the chapel . When we were there we got water proofs for different activities.

At first we played some games without harnesses . When we put the harnesses on I climbed to the top .

At night we had hot chocolate and biscuits. It was nine o’clock . In my room we stayed up until half three in the morning . Before breakfast I got a shower .

For breakfast I had sausages and beans . When we finished breakfast we had some time in our rooms . Then we got some equipment to go canoeing . We got to the lake in a mini bus. We got the canoes out and split in to two teams . My team won the race to the target and we won the race back as well . Canoeing was my favourite activity . I jumped in four times . We went back in the mini bus .

When we got back to the centre we had lunch. I had ham sandwiches and crisps . After lunch we had some room time . We went wood crafting we made fires and made dens .
