Hello!   Last week we went to Whitwell Hall. We had loads of fun, we really enjoyed the activities but we mostly enjoyed these four.

One of them is pond dipping because you could catch lots of fish like Crayfish, Water Boatmen and lots of other species.

One of the other activities is natural art because it was creative and fun.

The last two we liked were orienteering and bridge-building because bridge-building challenged us all to build it quickly and work as a team also orienteering was fun because it was raining so it made us to put ourselves to the test. It was also fun to share a bunk bed with our friends and a room together.

And a special mention to Paula for her delicious food.

An overall rating is a 10/10 from us.

Thank you for all the staff to help us through the trip so thank you John, Cathie, Steve and Matt.

Hi! Last week we went to Whitwell Hall and it was amazing!
We did lots of activities such as: boat building, shelter building and the nature walk just to name a few.
The thing I enjoyed the most, was the food as it was very good. We had meatballs and pasta for  dinner on the first day, it was fantastic!
Also, the beds were really good and comfy.
I loved the activities they were brilliant!
My personal favourite activity was shelter-building because I love building and you can do that in the wild with only a tarpaulin and rope. Furthermore, I liked the fire lighting because now I know how to light a fire properly.
The thing I have learnt from Whitwell is that there is more to our world than just parks, shops and festivals so you can go outside and play in parks but you can also go on walks and build shelters.
A special mention to John, Cathie, Steve, Paula and Mat for helping us to have more fun at Whitwell Hall!
