Very early start for some boys and staff today. 6.15am is a bit early to hoover the dorms!
One group went up the gorge with Ms Frew, another went canoeing with Mrs Brown and the last went for a Shore Scramble with Mr Devine.
Great weather and great fun! More activities this afternoon and then an exciting challenge tonight…and Tuck Shop.
After a lovely sunny journey through to Gourock we had a quick stop for lunch at Battery Park.
Then we boarded the ferry to Dunoon. It was a lovely sunny sail over the Holy Loch. And then we were at Benmore!
When we arrived we had a quick snack then off for an adventure in the Gardens.
Later we will have our night walk!
The bus has arrived safely and everybody is settling in and exploring Benmore!
