Students are happy to be in the water finally! They are putting all their theory into practice… the best kind of learning.
Camping is also educational between the formal lessons and activities.
- Some students have volunteered to wash up after meals (a skill that can be practiced at home, for sure)
- After a reminder about the self-serve food tent, some students have re-discovered the joy of getting their own snacks rather than having a full service snack call.
- Most students have offered to help with at least one meal so far (another skill to practice further at home): chili on jacket potatoes, carrot and coriander soup, bean salad, chicken burgers with fixings; pancakes and eggs; homemade falafel/chicken/cheese sandwiches with fixings; shish-kebabs with beef, chicken and veggies, with BBQ corn on the cob; pasta and homemade thick and chunky tomato sauce; and tonight… personal calzones on the grill. Marshmallow and hot chocolate proficiencies have also been clearly demonstrated.
