So far today, our children have been overcoming new obstacles and challenges by taking part in some more of the outdoor adventures on offer at kingswood. The first obstacle for Miss Stanton’s group this morning was abseiling! Our group leader- Kiera- spoke to the children before the activity about what it means to face your fears, even if you don’t conquer them. Would you be more proud of the friend who climbed up to the top,  despite being extremely out of their comfort zone, and deciding to just peek over the top, or the friend who could climb up, abseil down and wave to their friends in less than 30 seconds? We decided that we would be proud of them both: one for giving it a shot and the other for showing us what you can do when you embrace new experiences. Our children showed great qualities of resilience, determination and compassion during the abseiling activity, and that for us is what it’s all about!
