The giant swing is a new activity that involves team work, personal targets and a massive release of adrenaline. Two volunteers are willingly strapped to a suspended metal bar between two huge wooden pylons via cables. Every spare group member must then put their backs into wrenching the two brave children up towards the heavens. Upon reaching a designated point the pair have to pull a quick release rope that instantly releases them and they swing at a rate of knots like a huge pendulum. High pitch screeches are then consequently heard around the campus from both the girls and boys that quickly change to sounds of jubilation and giggling.
This activity was summed up best by the look on Luke's face in the photo bellow.
After another successful day of activities where children exceeded their individual targets and learnt many new skills the dinning hall was calling to refuel their tired bodies. Immediately after, the gift shop was open where many children bought treasured items that will remind them and you of this amazing week. Be prepared for beautiful fridge magnets, paper weights and soft rock or other such glorious items.
A quick change into a mixture of posh frocks, smart shirts and clothes not worn since Tuesday and it was off to the disco. Many boys busted many a move in order to impress and the girls stood and giggled. However, the highlight of the evening was Mr Bird, Mrs Churchett, Mr Davies, Miss Grove and the PGL staff on the stage giving it large to YMCA. Surprisingly after the disco ended the children returned to their chalets and immediately started to pack their bags and get ready for some well earned shut eye.
