Brambletye Survival Camp

On the Bank Holiday Monday 20 brave Brambletye pupils from Years 3 to 8, spent the day building shelters which they then slept in over night.

Building Shelters took a couple of hours ...

Then after a go no the new school 220m zip wire and a swim, it was time to think about supper and how we were going to cook it. We had to make fire ...

We had then to check that the fire was working by toasting marshmallows.

The night was mostly peaceful, with the occasional owl screech and fox yelp, but dawn was beautiful ...

Morning meant tidying up and we 'left nothing behind but footprints and took nothing away but photographs': just as Mr Purcell requested.

There are more photographs in the Gallery.
