Amy Walton from Gold Company is our guest blogger for today so Hurray for her!
Well today we had Yew Tree and i must say it felt a long time since we did, "Best and Worst," I missed them times. But anyway after, "Best and Worst," we did a few games, one included us all acting like zombies and trying to attack the 'survivor', it was quite fun I do have to say.
The main task today was a big improvisation and i mean big. All of us individually had to create a character in sixth form this, character was going on a school trip to South Wales. After creating the characters, students or teachers we started to board the coach. We then arrived at the centre after what felt a long time. We were them met by a man called Luke Short the centre manager (by the way this task didn't just take place within the indoors we took it to another extreme and did it inside and outside) we had to find a place in which we would camp with nature and then had to tell him which materials we wanted to make our sleeping more comfy. Some of the suggestions were quite hilarious.
Some of the students on this trip were quite adimant that they would sleep inside. By the time that 10pm came around they were told that they would sleep outside. The teachers then decided to go back inside and go to a hotel. The centre manager met us there and she looked cross, we soon found out that a student had broken a window so everyone was throwing accusations around. We then decided the only way to get around this situation was to run away. Or drive away as it were. I really enjoyed the improvisation because we took it
to another level...when you're all compact in one room you sometimes don't feel you have the freedom you need but going outside and inside, I felt for one, that it worked better for me. I really enjoyed todays improvisation and hope that in the future we can do more.
Also I hope that if i go on any school geography trips its not like that one.
