Scuba and scones!!!
Monday, July 18th, 2011
Week 2 has started at XUK and some of our teens have been in the pool learning how to scuba dive. They’ve had plenty of help from our instructors and collected hoops and sharks from the bottom of the pool as well as swimming through underwater obstacle courses.
We’ve also had some of the juniors making bath bombs and lip balms so they are smelly sweetly as they go to bed tonight!
We’ve also had lots of groups in the kitchen making batches of delicious scones served with cream and jam for afternoon tea. They were yummy!! Thanks to the chefs – the next groups have a lot to live up to!
