We set our Cubs and Scouts in the group a challenge to lead us through a traditional camp fire song on awards night; this is what they chose! Well done!
When I was2, I lost a shoe, that’s the life for me, I climbed aboard a pirate ship &the captain said to me, going this way, that way over the irish sea, a bottle of rum to warm my tum and thats the life for me!

The sun is shining at Carlton Lodge. Everyone is happy and laughing with their friends. All those early morning nerves have gone!
The children have battled bedroom organisation and making their bed, eaten lunch and are now doing activities. Some are doing Orienteering and Archery; others have started with Bushcraft and Problem solving. Every child will do every activity during the course of the week.
The hardest challenge so far - getting everyone looking in one direction and smiling at the same time at lunch time!
Let's hope it stays dry for the night walk!
The children really enjoyed the night walk and the weather was just right - some very tired children went to bed happy
