Instructions
LEADER: The situation is dire following a shipwreck, everyone has been stranded on a deserted island
Each person is allowed to bring one item to the island. Ideally it should be something that represents them or something they enjoy.
FIRST TASK: Everyone in the group is to describe an item they would bring and why. (It does not have to be realistic)
Leader: Encourage the guides to be creative.
SECOND TASK: Divide into two groups - they must improve their chance of survival by combining the various items they would bring. All items must be mentioned and what they would be used for.

THIRD TASK: Both groups must give feedback to the big group.
FOURTH TASK: It looks like they will have to live on the island so BOTH teams will need to:
• Name the island
• Design a flag
• Compose a national song
• Decide on a motto
• Create and demonstrate a national game e.g. Hurling for Ireland.
• Create and demonstrate a national dance.
FIFTH TASK: Present the above to the big group.
Notes for leaders: Please encourage each guide to participate.
Explain that each guide has lots of talents which they should utilise for the benefit of the team. Task four - join a group that shows your talent.
Watch the time.
