A real mix of activities at EFSC to wrap up the half term.

For our final session before the half term break we made good use of all the Gymnastic equipment in the school hall.
Ray led us in a warm up starting outside with some jogging and fast walking before moving back in to the hall for various stretches to get our bodies ready for what was to come.
The group then split in to three smaller groups to make use of the various climbing frames and activities we had laid out in the hall. All the kids got stuck in and really seemed to enjoy it, even if some were a bit wary of the heights.

After 15 minutes on each station the groups rotated so that they all got a chance to have a turn on each piece of equipment.

After the break we switched to playing some parachute games led by Ray and Ollie. These included switching places when called out by running underneath the parachute and trying to keep a ball close to the centre of the parachute. I think the favourite game though was how high they could flick Todd's Buzz Lightyear soft toy in the air!

We finished off with some games of Benchball with the group splitting in to two teams - the blues and the yellows. The Blue team won  the first game but the yellow's equalled things up by winning the second game. It was down to a deciding game and despite Ollie's one man defensive wall for the blue team it was the yellow's who came out victorious for a come from behind win.

It was a fantastic session and at the end there were many candidates worthy of the Star of the Week awards but there can only be two and they went to Kealan and Valentina. Well done to you both!
Have a great half term and we will see you all again on Saturday 2nd March.
