This year's P7 trip kept with tradition and didn't disappoint. We laughed, we shook in our boots, we stood by each other and we achieved crazy goals.

The Challenge Course is all about Team Players
Trust is an easy word to say


but real trust is hard to find and takes time to build.

We felt much more like a real team by the time we had finished.
We were more understanding and better able to be there for each other.

 

 

Quad bikes were great fun

Time for a chat between ralleys
In between the thrills and skills we grabbed the odd moment just to be happy with a good bunch of friends.      Life is good don't you think?
The Zip Wire was a thrilling experience
-soaring through the air!

 

 

Is it a bird? Is it a plane?

Nope- it's the Flying Priest

 This series is called
The Adventures of Fr. Jim

Breaking the penguin's beak.

THE CHALLENGE OF ALL CHALLENGES-THE TRAPEZE

 

It's a team effort - safety first. I'm going up in the world.

Hello down there!

Oh my - it's a long way down!

Bend your knees for good spring Jumping up and out.
Gotcha!
This really tested our nerve-you had to force yourself to jump, even though every sense in your body screamed at you to hold back.
Wow!
What a buzz!
 
Sweet relief!
   


The Giant Swing

The team had to pull and crank us up.

Challenging gravity.

It took them ages to get us up -don't know why, it only took us seconds to come down!!

The adventure wasn't all hanging about-we also had to learn new skills like archery and use them to play for our dinner and cutlery.

Head Girl versus Head Hood

Get ready. Take aim. Fire!

In amongst all the adrenaline we also found moments of tranquil beauty...

..and time to simply laugh!

Roll on next year.
