York and Windsor 7 had a spectacular time at the Camp Kieve Leadership school in Nobleboro, Maine. Students climbed to heights they had never reached before, literally and figuratively. Kids were seen climbing the High Fifty, a fifty foot climb up a tree with a wire to walk on looming at the top, as well as the Trapeze where kids would climb a 45 foot tall telephone pole and jump off the top to clutch a trapeze bar. Students also worked together in groups, learning things about classmates that they didn’t know before and working together in teams.Classes focused on good decision-making, teambuilding, skills, effective communication, and taking healthy and unhealthy risks. Students made stronger bonds, worked hard to reach goals as teams, and most of all learned lessons that they could take back home to practice with. Hopefully pictures from Camp Kieve will be available on the blog soon. Comments are welcome!
