Leadership & Teamwork

Years3&4

As part of our leadership programme, Years 3 and 4 spent an exciting day at Sayers Croft Activity Centre. Children developed teambuilding skills as they figured out how to cross through the woodland challenge without touching the ‘lava’ floor. They balanced along ropes, passed planks and worked out how to find the key to escape. It was an opportunity to share ideas to help each other.

‘My favourite thing was caving,’ said Jack. ’You had to crawl through the rocks. There were steep drops, and it was slippery.’ For some children, it proved very challenging to wriggle through the dark, narrow passages, but they showed true DH spirit, and everyone had a go. The children worked as a pair, to guide a blindfolded partner along an obstacle course and then solved puzzles in a maze. Sebastian declared that his favourite part was the zip wire in the woods. Sophie summed up the day by saying, ‘I LOVED IT!’ Janet White
