Summer Camp England

23rd July 2015

Basketball Match - Campers vs Counsellors

For the second last day of the week, all of our programs and activities worked at their full potential whether on the pitch, the stage or in the classroom, every single camper is busy and ready to go. It's no surprise either with Creative Arts finishing off their final projects, whilst English and VCTV reflected on what they have learnt and their experiences this summer. The Horse Riding were busy as per usual, improving and evaluating their skills meanwhile Activity and Adventure were only just returning, tired but satisfied, from their overnight camp out. It was time for our football team to train hard for their big match on Friday as Performing Arts also prepared for a different kind of show.

But today the Basketball program had the place of honour and demonstrated all the work the campers accomplished during the game against the counsellors. We won't reveal the score, we counsellors, are too ashamed of it but let's say that we are proud of the improvements every camper has accomplished! Anyway the game was amazing and the atmosphere was outstanding, everybody cheering each other on. It was surely not a game with suspense but it was very entertaining to watch.

By the time the evening came, Village Camps was still alive with camp spirit from a day full of activity, adventures, friends and sportsmanship and after dinner everyone got to engage in some new activities in their own house groups. Our Yellows had some more house night fun with a treasure hunt session led by our colour leaders. Reds were able to chill out and relax in the Muggles activity centre while our Blues got treated to a night time pool session complete with party food and games.

Overall, today was amazing but we are expecting more from tomorrow which is very special for us as it is the last day of camp.
