Continuing to work on our Adventure Challenge, we went out into the park in our Lodges to complete a quiz that took us around the park, through Ryebank Fields and across a road. We had to answer 11 questions along the way to solve a crossword riddle. We also demonstrated our understanding of the green cross code by crossing the road in several places. 

This week we tested our balance, daring and stamina with an obstacle course outside! We wobbled along a slack line, found our way blindfolded across stepping stones, jumped and crawled through tyres and jumped off a tall tower!

For our Outdoor Challenge we needed to make something to help animals in the wild so this week we made bird feeders. We mixed bird seed with gelatine and filled yoghurt pots with the mixture. Once they’ve set in the fridge, we’ll hang them outside for the birds to enjoy. We also played more games and awarded another Chief Scout Bronze Award - congratulations!

With the lovely weather on our side, we ventured forth into the park to make our own natural paintbrushes. We used sticks and a selection of grass, leaves, flowers and feathers along with elastic bands to make our brushes and then used chalk paint to create our works of art on the floor.
