Wednesday "Raid" Activity

For the last boarders activity of the term, the children participated in the group game called 'Raid'. Due to the numbers of kids, both juniors and seniors were separated into three teams - red, yellow and green. Luckily, the weather was absolutely beautiful again and so we held the activity on the Front Field. The rules were as followed:
- Each child had to have a team-coloured ribbon attached to somewhere on their bodies that would be in an easy spot for the opposition to grab
- Each player had to go to the oppositions' base (a circle made out of either red, yellow or green cones) and collect their own coloured tokens
- If someone from the opposing teams manages to take the coloured ribbon from a person, then they have to run back to their base and start their attempt again
- The team with the biggest collection of their own coloured tokens wins that round

Although there was lots of accusations of cheating - as it is an extremely hard game to umpire - but fortunately it was all sorted out after the first couple of rounds when Mr Callow informed the kids that any cheating will result in -5 points.

After many, many games with some talented running and dodging the reds ended up with as the winners as even though they had collected the least amount of tokens, they had done the least amount of cheating - therefore deserving the honour of being the All Hallows' Raid Champions!
