What on earth is Gincana?!
A gincana consists of a series of obstacles that one must overcome. For this, the kids had a number of activities to carry out in teams and they all did them really well!
First there was the three-legged race. At first the concept seemed easy, but once everyone got going they realised that it wasn't as easy as they'd thought! Finding that you can't control your own leg meant that a few groups tumbled over - but in the end, that was the fun part!
Then there was the egg and spoon race. As you can see from the picture, it was a real test of balance and speed! Thankfully the eggs were boiled in advance ;-) Following the egg race, pupils paired up for a human wheel barrow race which in some cases was very well balanced while in others it got pretty wobbly!
And finally, the blind apple bobbing race. Trying to find an apple in water with your eyes covered is - quite obviously - not an easy task, however, the kids supported each other throughout and managed to keep the race tight almost right to the end.
