The field trip to the Bedford course all started when two buses left our school. I was on the first bus with basically all my friends. We sang songs on the bus and started chants. This experience was fun and I hope that you can hear and experience it as well. 

When we got there it seemed like the place was a school. When we got there we dropped our stuff. Then we are selected into groups. After we went through the first stations. The first one was jumping rope to another platform. The goal is to make it there with everyone on the platform. The second element was like a bridge. We had to go through it without touching each other. After we were finished there was another element including thin beams. The trees were checkpoints. So when you fall after you touch a tree you start where the tree is not the beginning. Before we knew it, it was lunch. 

At lunch we sat on the logs that we first came here, We talked about our experience in the first few ones. There were a lot of wild bugs including bees. Many kids were afraid or maybe even allergic to them. After maybe 20 minutes of eating. The counselor there told us to clean up and make it look like what we came before. We went to the fourth station where you can turn into a tree. You try to make everybody finish to the end. It included teamwork. We finished up the last stations, which included walking on a very thin bean, and trying to make it to the end with three blocks which are platforms. The only tool you have is a short wooden board that didn’t make it to the other platform. Before we knew it we had to leave. The bus ride back was great, we told memories of the course and sang songs. Altogether it was all pretty fun. 

I learned that teamwork is important in these types of courses, not only these courses but also life to life. I have enjoyed this experience and I hope you enjoyed reading this article.
