We managed a glorious walk to the beach straight after lunch ☀️ 😎See you all very soon 🤗

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

What a way to wrap things up with some super speedy zip wires and exciting escape rooms! We are so proud of all the amazing and ambitious children in our teams this year! The dream team becomes team resilience! 🏆

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

This morning, for our final activities, group 2 smashed the matrix - we were even told that we were the fastest group our instructor had seen! We then flew high on the zip wire, zooming across the field. What an amazing last morning!

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

Group 2 and 3 enjoyed the Matrix together - we couldn’t believe how amazing the escape rooms actually were! Group 3 pushed themselves to their limits on Jacob’s Ladder 🪜💪🏼

From crafting delicious pizzas and launching rockets in Science, to creating Autumn-inspired artwork and engaging in team-building games during a fun-filled PE day — it’s been a week packed with creativity, collaboration, and lots of smiles in Year 6!

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

Team one had a fantastic afternoon team building and solving lots of problems that were no problem at all. Then we finished the day with the amazing sensory trail where they all got soaking wet and very, very muddy! 🫢 Sorry mums and dads for the dirty laundry!

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

This afternoon group two had a go on the giant swing, we all got to the very top! We also gave archery a go, we even had someone score a bullseye.

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

Group one this morning climbed the vertical challenge and then tested their survival skills in survivor!

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

This morning group two tested their survival skills building shelters in the woods. They also climbed up the amazing vertical challenge, working with all different terrains. It was such a good workout!

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

There’s been a definite drop in temperature here 🥶but group 3 are still on fire! They sped to the top of the vertical challenge and scored really well in archery 🏹

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

Group two had a very messy afternoon on the sensory trail! We crawled, climbed and ducked - all with our eyes covered, the mud got everywhere! We then pushed ourselves on the amazing Jacob’s ladder, climbing so high and working in our teams.

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

Group 1 finished this afternoon in style when we played an unbelievable game of archery tag and then tackled, and climbed, the formidable Jacob’s ladder! A fantastic display of physical strength and mental resilience had today! We will sleep well tonight!

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

Archery tag got fiercely competitive between groups 1 and 3; the final result was 1 all. It’s hard to believe that the girls had a second go on the Giant Swing after making all that noise 🙉😂

[Civitas Academy @R2Civitas]

Group one smashed this morning out of the park by taking on the giant swing! Then we took to the water and raced our dragon boats to victory! Team work makes the dream work!
