Our last day brought together all our skills from our adventures. Teamwork, communication and determination all on show.
Well done to these young people, they certainly pushed themselves this week and should be proud!

Day 3 #StMichaelsBV25
@stmichaelsgcc.bsky.social @blairvadachoec.bsky.social
The weather didn't dampen our efforts today, instead we hid in Succoth caves. Popping from cave to cave avoiding the constant rainfall.
The group pushed and squeezed through their comfort zones and the caves.

Good morning from @blairvadachoec.bsky.social!
The young people from my team wanted to let the world (and @stmichaelsgcc.bsky.social )how their week has been so far. They have written this lovely #BVpostcard
They hope everyone in Glasgow is doing well. They'll see you soon.

Straight in at the deep end. We took advantage of the least windy day this week to get on to the Gareloch. These young people picked up the skills required to canoe very quickly. I was impressed. Keep it up team.

Our final burst...the group chose bushcraft and orienteering, which meant for a fantastic finish. Combining responsible fires lighting with effective map reading skills allowed the young people to operate at their own pace.

Our land adventure took us into the forest below Ben Narnain. We started with a fungal foray collecting some Chanterelle mushrooms before heading up the hillside.
We finished with an unexpected scurry through some caves.

The introductory adventure took us to the streams of Duchess Woods. A brilliant place to get to know each other, learn about nature and dabble in adventure.
We also found some delicious Damsons to eat.
