Day 13 – On-Campus Day 4
After the torrential rain of yesterday we were very unsure what kind of weather we would wake up to today, however, the sun was shining and we were able to get outdoors for our first set of activities in the morning. This was, of course, after a sleep in and a late breakfast. It has to be said that the food at Wellington College is very tasty with the average breakfast offering a large number of delicious hot and cold options.
The young people on ISCA were able to choose from field hockey, rugby, squash and ultimate frisbee and the weather remained cool but dry throughout this session. Hungry and tired, the students returned to the dining hall for a superb lunch, which was followed by another choice of indoor activities as the rain returned. Board games, needlework, basketball (indoors), squash, table tennis and art were on offer. A surreal peace took over the space of ISCA as students were concentrating on their chosen activity.
“Even though it was raining, I had lots of fun doing the activities on offer.”
“I really enjoyed the free choice of activity. I chose hockey then board games.”
“I liked playing squash and ping pong (table tennis).”
“I liked making my portrait in needlework.”
“Tackle rugby was fun.”
“Today was quieter and I liked that it was low key.”
“It was awesome because we got to choose the activities and I liked board games.”
“I like being with my choice of friends. I loved art and squash. We were very creative with our board games and added a twist to it.”
