Group A
Group C
Louise: Hi Mum and Dad – I’m having a really great
time at DYM! I climbed up rocks and abseiled all the way down! Then we went in
a mine FULL of cold water up to my bottom!!! Love you lots!
Sandra: It’s brilliant! I was really good at
climbing.
Mari: I really enjoyed going in the mine but I
was covered head to toe in water!
Amber: Today we got dropped off in the middle of
the woods and I managed to use the map to find my way back to the DYM house.
I’m having a really good time!
Morgan: Hi Mum! I went to the woods where we had to
make our way back to DYM. I fell into a puddle of mud – I was covered up to my
knees. It took us 2 hours to get back but we found our way eventually!
Joe: DYM has been brilliant so far! We went
climbing on rocks at the seaside and kayaking in the lake.
Luke: I enjoyed kayaking in the lake by DYM. I got to fall in backwards at the
end. Also, in the morning we got
to rock climb near the sea.
Theo: Hi family – It’s great to be here! Even
though some of you have already been, just want you to know that the house is
really big and comfy. Mr Jones is
in my group and he is actually behaving (so far…!)
Kyra: I’ve enjoyed today so much! I know it’s
October but we all had an ice cream – chocolate for me! Hi Kiza – I miss you
and you’re going to love it here in a few years time!
Jack: I’ve enjoyed my 2 days at DYM so far! We
did our first activities today but I keep on slipping over!
Sara: I went mountain climbing and I was scared
at first but I liked abseiling down.
When I was scared Sandra helped me to stand up and keep going!
Luis: Having a brilliant time here again at DYM.
I can’t wait to find out what our next activities as going to be!
Josh: I settled in well at DYM in my dorm. I
enjoyed the long walk in the mountains because it really pushed me to the
limits!
Matthew: I have enjoyed everything that
I’ve done, I’ve improved my bed making skills.
Callum: I am enjoying Dol-Y-Moch and I have
got better at making my bed. I loved finding creatures on the beach.
Gaganpreet: When I came to Dol-Y-Moch I was
nervous. We went climbing and I found it difficult, however after practise I
became more confident.
Umar: I am really enjoying Dol-Y-Moch, my
favourite part is the mine so far.
Harry: In kayaking, I was scared that I was
capsizing, but I never did and I really enjoyed it. I was nervous at the start.
At the end we all leant back into the water, it was so cold!
Charlie: I really enjoyed the mine because
you could observe all the ores.
Nathan: I am enjoying my experience so far.
I went kayaking today. I was nervous that I would fall in at the start but in
the end I get there!
Lewis: I have enjoyed Dol-Y-Moch so far and
I have had a great experience trying new things.
Reuben: I was great at abseiling today so
don’t worry because I am having a great time.
Leo: I loved kayaking today, but at the
start I was nervous. Andria pushed us in the water. I was ok when we started
paddling but then after I thought I was going to fall in because my elbow went
in the water. I loved it when we played games like bull dog.
Jacob: Yesterday I failed miserably at
making my bed. Today I really enjoyed kayaking in the river even though it was
freezing. I can’t wait till the other activities.
Oliver: Dol-Y-Moch is AMAZING! I learnt how
to work with others in a difficult situation.
Taylor: So far it has been wicked but the
only thing I haven’t enjoyed about it has been making my bed, I loved the
activities we did today, I found crabs, prawns and krill!
Cameron: Within the first hour, I was lost
in my task of finding our way back to Dol-Y-Moch house from 2 miles away! Lol
But we found our way back eventually!
Mason: Today, team B got a bit wet because
we went to the lake just behind the main house. We canoed, played bulldog and
threw a ball across the canoes in the water. I have great friends and I am
sharing a room with them!
Amaan: I don’t like the mine because I had
to trek through the water and I got water in my boots. I have made my bed.
Mr. Darnley: I've had a fantastic day at the beach and adventure walk. The children were full of enthusiasm and were determined to succeed. Nothing was stopping them! What a great day!
Gemma: It has been a brilliant day! Children have worked really well together, doing themselves proud.
