Week 1 photos NCS 2016- Overstrand

Here are our photos from Week 1 of NCS 2016

Lots of fun, games and laughs...

The first activity that we did was a team building game- 'who could build the highest structure'...

Lots of teamwork skills, talking and planning...

Nickys team certainly went very high!...

In the evening we did some more team building exercises... acting & ball games...

After the team games we went to Tescos to buy supplies for the tuck shop then stopped by the Cromer seaside view to look at the beautiful sun setting...

Beautiful...
