Expedition Robinson at the IJzeren Man in Vught. This beautiful recreation area, located in North Brabant, was the perfect location for a day full of adventure, team building and fun. On arrival at the IJzeren Man site, we were warmly welcomed by the enthusiastic organizers of the event. They divided us into different teams and gave us a short explanation about the course of the day. The goal of Expedition Robinson is to reach the island council as a team and eventually get the title of 'Ultimate Robinson'. All this through various challenging tests, where both physical and mental strength are put to the test. Various testsThe first test was an obstacle course, where we crossed rope bridges, through tires and had to crawl under nets. It was a challenge to reach the finish as quickly as possible as a team, in which good communication and cooperation were crucial. The second test was a thinking task, in which we had to solve a complicated puzzle. Our team members had to put their heads together and use each other's strengths to find the solution. It was a great way to get to know each other's thinking processes better and to strengthen the team dynamics. In between the tests we enjoyed a delicious picnic on the sun-drenched beach of the IJzeren Man. We had the opportunity to swim, sunbathe or just chat and laugh with our colleagues. After the break, a challenging balance test awaited us. We had to balance on a narrow beam with the whole team without falling off. This test required patience, concentration and above all trust in each other. The last test was a real test: a relay race in which we had to overcome various obstacles both on land and in the water. It was an exciting race against the clock, in which every team member had to push his or her limits. At the end of the day, all teams met at the island council. Here the results of the trials were announced and the winner crowned 'Ultimate Robinson'. While not everyone came out on top, it was clear that we all had a fantastic day. We had learned a lot about ourselves and each other, and the bond between the team members had undeniably strengthened. |
