Tentastic Thursday! ⛺️

Another scorching day at Wynchemna started off with the buzz of students attending to their morning chores laundry day! The refreshing scent of clean clothes filled the air, setting a productive tone for the day ahead.

Once the laundry was done, we shifted gears to our English lessons. Today’s topic: Canadian currency. It was fascinating to learn about the colourful bills and the unique coins like the loonie and the toonie. To make learning fun, we played an engaging Connect 8 word game, followed by a lively session of charades. Laughter echoed around as everyone got into the spirit of the game, trying to outdo each other with creative gestures and guesses.

Lunchtime at the cafeteria was a feast. We were served a delicious variety of food, including fish, meatballs, rice, and potatoes. It was a nice break that gave us the energy boost needed for the afternoon activities.

Post-lunch, we gathered in our tent groups to pack our sleeping bags and unleash our creativity! First up was designing team t-shirts. Each tent group came up with unique and colourful designs that showcased their team identity. The bonding didn’t stop there. We headed outdoors for some classic team bonding games: tug of war, dizzy bat race, oreo challenge, soccer and a water balloon toss. The competitive spirit was high, but so was the camaraderie. As the sun began to set, our tent groups regrouped to preform recreated songs and posters that represented each team.

To cap off the day, we enjoyed a delightful supper of pizza and snacks. Sitting together, sharing stories, and munching on pizza was the perfect way to wind down after a fun-filled day.

Another memorable day at Wynchemna has come to an end, leaving us all excited for more adventures with our tent groups. We can’t wait to see what new memories tomorrow will bring!
