Christ Church Grade 8 learners team up for educational activities
NOORDWYK – They worked individually and in groups, reflecting on their individual strengths and weaknesses.
During the first week of the school term, Christ Church Preparatory School and College Grade 8 learners participated in a two-day camp on the school field.
The camp was hosted by Spirit of Adventure – an organisation that aims to provide programmes that are not only fun and adventurous but also educational and practical. A discussion was held on what a team is, as well as a discussion on which is better, a team of stars or a star team.
Learners were divided into groups and ‘the relationship tree was discussed’. They worked individually and in groups, reflecting on their individual strengths and weaknesses. Various team activities were held, including a go-cart to race.
The learners also had to build rafts using two canoes, wooden poles, and rope. Once the raft had been built, a relay race took place whereby four learners per team paddled their raft to the other side of the pool.
The school thanked Spirit of Adventure on social media for the lovely camp and important, yet exciting activities.
