A fun packed half term for children – Essential Survival Skills at Cofton
On the 19th of February 2019, a team of brave children and their parents took to the woods to learn some essential survival skills with the entertainments team Jay and Craig.
During the session the participants learnt all important knot tying skills, before building a shelter that was both creature and monster proof.
After successful shelters had been built, the teams had to solve a puzzle and learn to read a map with our orienteering challenge. The aim was to find your way around the forest, using the map and searching for hidden numbers on trees. Each number on the tree had an accompanying letter, the aim was to be the first team to solve the puzzle and spell the word.
Teams successfully completed the mission and even found traces of Digby on their adventures…A great day out enjoying the great outdoors.
