Residential Blog

Hello everyone!

The year 6 residential blog will be appearing here.

They'll be lots of interesting information appearing on the blog. Such as:

- What activities the children are getting up to.
- The creative displays they're making with their teddies.
- The fun they're having and the new friendships they're creating.
- How they're all in bed by 8pm and are getting least 10 hours sleep a night.

I'll try to get the first blog up on Monday night or Tuesday morning.

Thanks,

Mr Hodge

Lots of them managed to reach the top, but a few of the children were a bit disappointed that,...

We were first into breakfast at 7.15, so it was an early start, which was not appreciated. Once we'd filled up on bacon, eggs, yet more beans, plenty of toast and cereal, we were a lot happier.  Morning activities were: 'The trapeze', Survival Skills and a challenge course. The Trapeze involved climbing up a pole and leaping off the top to grab onto a swinging bar. With the high winds this morning, they had an extra wobbly time at the top of the pole. It was a relief for some of the children that they didn't have to climb up high again for the next activity. In Survival Skills, they learnt to lay tracks for someone to follow, light fires and survive in the wild. Feel free to abandon them one weekend in the future and they won't perish! Going kayaking this afternoon was a highlight for most children, as it invol...
