Walls Scavenger Hunt Adventure

Walls Scavenger Hunt Adventure




The YMCA Heroes group were out and about exploring the city for two sessions in October. The group followed an interactive scavenger hunt and faced many challenges including taking pictures, answering questions and following directional arrows. Whilst on the adventure the group got to learn about their city as they stopped at notable sights such as the Guildhall, Walkers Plinth and the Courthouse.

We also did a bit of geocaching and found one hidden at St Augustine's Church. As it was quite a cold day we stopped off at the Quirky Raven café for some hot drinks! 

On our second day out we started at the Diamond War Memorial and learnt how old Austin's department store is. We went into the garden of reflection and stopped at the Honesty Café as it was raining and we got to enjoy buns and a drink.
