his term we went on our school tour to Cuskinny Activity Centre. We went to Cuskinny on the 20th of May. We were able to do so many fun activities. When we arrived, we were put into our group for the day. Then we started with our first activity. First, we went grass sledging. It was so cool. We had to sit on a small sledge with wheels and we went racing down the hill. We even did a relay. Then we did the Squirrel obstacle course which was a balancing obstacle course. After lunch we did the Forest Maze Challenge Course. We had to climb under nets and crawl through tunnels. We really enjoyed this activity. Our last activity was ziplining. Our favourite activity was the ziplining activity because it was really fast and fun. We had a great day on our School Tour.

Then we climbed another hill where we saw the grass sledges. They were compact orange boxes with treads and two levers which were the brakes. We were split into 4 groups. We went down a few times. Then we had race. We zoomed down the hill at astonishing speed.
Overall, we had a great day and I really enjoyed it. It was probably the best school tour yet.
