Day 4

Group 2

The children had another great day out and about hill walking around Burrowdale valley. We learned about the valley's mining history.

They climbed up to about 400 metres before sitting down at the summit and eating their packed lunch.

In the afternoon we made over way down to a secret cave where we learned bush craft skills.  They used dry sticks, gathered on the way up, to make a fire using different fire lighting techniques.  After lighting the fire, they toasted marshmallows and drank hot chocolate.

The children are looking forward to tonight's disco party.
