Forty-two students from year six and seven teachers from Doha British School headed off for a four-day outward bound adventure to the UAE.
As soon as they arrived at the base camp in Umm Al Quwain it was straight into kayaking, canoeing and raft building.
“The base camp was located on the beach, so all meals were eaten on the beach looking out to the mangroves and the sea, a stunning view. Day two saw the pupils travelling to Wadi Adventure in Al Ain to take part in whitewater rafting, zip wires and testing their nerve on the high ropes course!”
All pupils took to the activities with determination and all succeeded in each of the activities.
On day three the pupils abseiled, climbed and hiked at Wadi Wurayah in the East of the UAE. A refreshing swim in a natural pool at the turning around point was enjoyed by all. Day four saw the pupils once again taking part in activities in Umm Al Quwain. All pupils got to do mountain biking, archery and snorkeling. Forty-two very happy but tired pupils returned to Doha on Saturday having had the trip of a lifetime.The Peninsula
