Our introduction to army life

On Thursday 10th of November, the day before Remembrance Day, 6NS got the chance to take part in a brilliant session of training with an army training instructor. This amazing session in PE included running, jumping and crawling through our assault course! At the start we had to warm up by stepping up over imaginary barbed wire and leopard crawling on the mats. Our first task was to practice climbing over the trench wall and crawling under the camouflage net which was in  no-man’s land; it was difficult to not get snagged in the camo net. After this we had to sprint to the trench and crouch under its cover.

For the second activity our task was to get supplies to our base. We worked in partners to retrieve supplies and raced the other team to get back to the trench. Although my team won it was extremely close. The session finished with a  warm down. It was so good everyone wished they could do it all over again and we got a little bit of  an idea about how fit you have to be when you are in the military.
