m : i have with me this evening , louise graham , a group leader at ravens field outdoor adventure center for children . louise , how long have you been there ? f : well , before i first went there 2 years ago , i thought i 'd probably only stay for a year . but after 6 months or so . i really started to enjoy the job , so i 'd been there ever since . to be honest , i was lacking in self confidence and when i first arrived i was a bit worried about making mistakes . i was frightened i might put the children in danger because of my inexperience . m : what 's the best thing about your work ? f : one thing i like is seeing them have so much fun . even if sometimes their behavior is n't perfect , and i can suggest activities that have n't been tried before , but there are always some children who have n't quite got as much ability as others , and for me , the most rewarding part of the job is getting them to succeed and things they have n't managed to do before . it 's hard work though , sometimes you 're on duty at night . m : um , what do you think about that ? f : well , i ca n't say i look forward to starting work at 10:00 pm . but the kids have to be looked after 24 hours , so someone has to do it , and all the staff take turns .
