Morning Update:
A fun time was had at PGL sports night. Everyone worked hard in their teams. Most of the group slept well. There was lots of excitement and some very early risers!
It is raining quite hard this morning, but the forecast is due to clear up by lunchtime.
Half the group are off raft building at the Portland sailing centre this morning while the other half take part in the giant swing and aeroball. We’ll update at lunch with some photos.
Lunchtime Update:
A brilliant time was had by all this morning. Lots of resilience was shown in the rain and wind. The raft building group did brilliantly and all managed to build successful rafts. We had fun sharing the water with the Team GB sailing team. The groups on site had fun with the giant swing and aeroball. The rain has stopped and it is brightening up.
Evening Update:
A busy afternoon & the sun came out! We had more successful rafts on the harbour & lots of climbing & giant swing in action.
The children have been brilliant today & shown great resilience & determination. Everyone worked together in the evening to protect a water balloon with mixed success!
Many children are very tired today and settling down to bed. We are looking forward to a busy day ahead tomorrow.

Morning Update:
A good sleep was had by everyone and many children had to be woken up. The sun is shining but it is windy.
We have a busy day ahead with lots of activities such as zip wire, problem solving, vertical challenge & survivor.
Lunchtime Update:
A very busy morning on site. We have been flying down the zip wire, learning survival skills, problem solving and swinging on the giant swing. Lots of great team work and resilience has been needed especially when the weather has swung from glorious sunshine to torrential rain and back! We’ve another busy afternoon ahead before we get ready for the disco and souvenir shopping.
Morning update:
We had a blast at the disco last night! Lots of energetic dancing and fun was had by all (including the adults)
We’ve had a busy morning already: bags are packed, beds are stripped and lots of toast has been consumed ready for our activity sessions. We are all tackling the vertical challenge this morning and finishing off other activities such as aeroball and survivor.
The sun is shining, although there are a few clouds in the sky and we learnt yesterday that the weather can change very quickly!
