A couple of reports from Yenworthy:

Here are a few pictures of our group challenge, we had to take a bowl of water over a rope course with lots of challenges including doing a flip through a tyre and climbing a wall with no rope! With a little teamwork we were able to help to push and support each other across the wall, so a lot of trust went into this.

This has been a brilliant first day!

People were to scale a wall, shown behind us about eight foot high. The skills involved were teamwork and communication both crucial to succeed in this challenge even if just climbing with all the time in the world BUT...three teams were to compete against each other trying to get the best time!

Planning for the challenge involved thinking about who was the easiest to lift and when we should be lifting them to the top because the last person on the wall had no one underneath them to push them up and the first had no one to lift. To make the challenge even more difficult we had to carry the bucket of water used in the previous challenges over the wall too...without spilling!

Little did we know it would be our fate if we lost. As you can see our team were told ''ok losing team, your photo first'' . I'll leave you there ...
