Today was quite a quiet day here at the
Village Camps campus since there were so
many excursions, all of the intermediate
groups went off-campus at some point, and
the Seniors and 6 year olds also went on
different field trips during the day. The
Nine year olds had a terribly busy day that
they have all been dreading for the past
week- swimming in the morning and bowling in
the afternoon, I tell you- it must be hard
being a nine year old a Village Camps…
The eight year
olds were also swimming today, but they went
in the afternoon and have since been the
envy of everybody else who had no escape
from the heat!! I almost wish it would rain
again… Meanwhile the seven year olds spent
the afternoon in Trelex, running through the
forest searching for fairies and building
them little houses out of flowers and twigs,
at least that was the plan, some of the
fairies now enjoy the protection of
multi-tiered fortresses or castles.
Some
of the Seniors went sailing at Lac de
Divonne this morning, and the others spent
the day at the Olympic museum in Lausanne,
the kind and helpful staff at the museum
provided a short video and presentation and
then the groups spent the remainder of their
time visiting all of the exhibits.
Field trips
aside, all of the groups have been working
hard in Drama and Dance preparing their
performances for Special day, no further
information is available because it would
spoil the surprise, but sufficed to say it
will, like every other special day, be a day
to remember and all of the campers and the
Staff are looking forward to seeing the
parents there. Fingers crossed that
the weather holds out!!
