A swan dive?


I think that's Mrs Green! Always hanging around (groan!).

Nice hats!


Tom discovers that he's not quite as in touch with fashion as he perhaps thought!

Enjoying the view.


Mr Bennett finds a nice peaceful spot to hide!

The Climbing Wall.


Don't look down!

Safety Talk!


Listening carefully......and slightly nervously!

The 'High' Ropes


I wonder why they call them that?

Back to shore!


And the boat race is a dead heat, again!

Life on the ocean waves!


Can there really be 2 boats called The Titanic?

Shortly before Jasmine smacked Mr Marshall in the face with an oar!


'Altogether-
Heads, shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes!'

It's all perfectly safe!



Dillon notices a fundamental flaw in the Kayaking session.

Getting ready for a day on the water!



Barrels? Check! Children? Check!

Waterfall???

...................................

Dawn breaks on day 3!


Strangely quiet in the boys dorm this morning. Except for the snoring!

Wood gathering?


Mr Bennett looks happy, wait til he sees what he's just stepped in!

Synchronised Swimming?


I think I should get a refund on the synch swimming lessons!

The boys seem to have it under control!



You can buy anything at IKEA, this is their Flat-Pack Instructor!

The teachers do let the children have a go....honestly!


'Right, which one of you woke me up at 5am???'

Not as easy as it looks!



The first of the 'Bush Tucker' trials!

Looks like it's worms for dinner!

The weather appears to be holding!

Did I mention that we were starting up a wrestling club after school?

Up bright and early!



Looking surprisingly happy, given the lack of sleep! Mrs Green's sunglasses are hiding the bags!

Looking very cosy!


There, that should sleep 35!

I've seen brighter days!



Hmmmmm... what's the forecast?

The first day and they're busy already!


Building the shelter, not sure it'll hold the rain off!

What's on the menu?


Enjoying their meal on the first day.

And They're Off..............


All bright eyed and full of excitement!

And that's just the staff. Wonder if they'll all look so awake on Friday?

It all starts here!

This is where you will be able to keep updated on what your children are up to while at Arethusa. We will do our best to update it as often as possible, but please bear in mind all the staff will be very busy most of the time. Please do keep checking back for updates (particularly in the evenings), and feel free to add your own comments.
