Paintballing

We had another amazing weekend last week with beautiful sunny weather - a perfect day for some paintball!

Four of the teachers from the school accompanied the boarding children on the trip. They immediately began to set up for the activity by mostly just covering themselves in war paint - especially some of the older girls, such as Christina (Year Eight) and Teresa (Year Seven).

They then proceeded to play four games of paintball where the aim of the games was simply to escape being hit as much as you could - luckily, the paintball guns were set to low impact! There was some excellent dodging and shooting skills shown, especially by Lucas (Year Eight) and Isabel (Year Seven).

The last paintball activity, however, was apparently the best as it was a pupils v teachers game. It got pretty competitive, with both sides fighting to win - especially the teachers who didn't want to deal with the abuse they would get from the kids if they lost!

Every child that went on the activity seemed to absolutely love it and even asked if they could go again next week. I'm sure we will organise another trip soon!

Signing off,
Miss Donato :)
