Beaver Fun Day at Gilwell - June 2006

On the 17th of June 23 Beavers and 25 parents/leaders met at the school for a trip to a birthday bash at Gilwell. We all got on the coach with an air of excitement from the youngsters. We arrived at Gilwell and erected a tent in which everyone stored their lunches and then all the Beavers departed for the fun and excitement of the coming day.

Amongst some of the activities our Beavers enjoyed were a team from Badgers entered the robot wars style arena, with life size robots and came second, WELL DONE BADGERS. Other activities in which our Beavers took part were, a revolving climbing wall, in which they had to keep climbing to see who climbed the highest that day, there was a big top with performances on all day, an assault course challenge through the woods, water activities, abseiling as well as a large selection of crafts, bouncy castles and opportunities for badge work.

At the end of the day most were so worn out and tired, that the coach was full of sleeping bodies ( that didn't exclude the parents!!!) dreaming of the day they had just enjoyed. We arrived back at the school at 5pm where everyone had a badge for their campfire blanket before departing for home.
