We started the day off as we will every day of camp, with our fun and engaging tefilla service for the participants, ‘Shul of Rock’, before a yummy breakfast.
This followed with an engaging activity for the children, where they had to build their own city, including a name, flag, laws and maps! It was a great team building exercise and the kids really enjoyed getting creative, with some very interesting cities created.
Next up was our first Challenge session! We were all split into set groups for the duration of camp, where we will discuss various intellectual and stimulating topics, as well as carry out thought provoking activities. It's also a great way to get to know each other and the madrichim on a more personal level. Today we discussed the communal and individual aspect of prayer, and it was great to see everyone getting actively involved in the discussion.
Lunch was followed by iClub, which is organised free time. Over the next week we’ll be having a few iClub sessions, where we get to spend time getting to know each other as well as working on a project together in our groups. Today was an energetic Zumba and football session, as well as bracelet making.
Our day then continued with a fun, action packed two hour programme (tochnit), ‘Gameshow’, where we underwent a series of challenges, including a total wipeout obstacle course, million pound drop and weakest link! It was so much fun!!
Next was free time, which was a great opportunity for us to relax and buy some nosh in the tuck shop, as well as socialise with everyone in an informal environment.
In the evening we had a thrilling ‘Who-done-it’ tochnit, which involved everyone working together in teams to find out who it was. It was very exciting! What a fantastic first, full day of camp!
