Summer Camp Santa Cruz, Portugal
FIrst day of camp!!!
First day of Camp!
Today we started the first official day of camp here in Santa Cruz with our very popular big breakfast that allowed our campers to get all the energy they needed for a morning full of introductions and icebreakers. After the camp rules had been explained and all the staff members officially introduced we headed out into the beautiful sunshine where we were playing different games in our counsellor groups to fully immerse ourselves into the camp spirit.
We followed that up with a quick swim test before lunch and all campers passed easily which will make for fun pool games and swimming activities in the next two weeks. In the afternoon when then split up into the surf and adventure groups and both headed down to the beach where the surfers went to our well trusted surf school for their first time in the ocean and our adventurers were introduced into the art and fun of longboard dancing.
We came back just in time for a quick break before dinner which was then followed by a camp wide game of Cluedo where the campers had to complete different tasks in their individual groups to collect clues about the mystery murder that they had to solve. Fortunately they managed and are now ready for bed in order to collect enough energy to start tomorrow with just that same amount of energy and enthusiasm as today.
Goodnight and until tomorrow!
