Tent practice - a great success!

Yesterday we had our first go at assembling tents, in preparation for the Subic trip.

First, the teachers showed children how the 'professionals' do it in the calm, quiet and windless conditions of the ballet room (and Ms Travi went to sleep in the tent!)

Then it was into groups and outside for the practice. It went very well on the whole, with the only problems being a few big gusts of wind and a couple of groups thinking that screwing up their tent at the end would be the best way to get everything back in the bag!

Our next practice will be during the week after half term. Thanks to everyone who bought their own tents in, especially if you already knew how to put it up! You can see some more pics if you look in the 'Files and Photos' box on the right.
