Winter Update - The Den
Sanctuary Clear Out
It was great to see our Eco-Team getting stuck in today on the first attempt at clearing out The Sanctuary. As you can see from the photos, our garden area has become quite overgrown and needs a lot of work. Who better that our Eco-Team who have rolled up their sleeves, quite literally, and started weeding and pulling out dead plants. Great to see such collaboration in action.
Nell Bank
Our children in Year Three and Four visited Nell Bank in June for our first ever LKS2 residential. We were a little worried about the age of the pupils and being away from home for two nights, but we shouldn't have because they were fantastic! Our pupils tackled the seven mile (mostly uphill) walk to the Cow and Calf, went pond-dipping, took part in team activities and used their problem solving skills. We were also impressed by their manners and behaviour with Nell Bank staff who commented how wonderful they had been.
Buckden House
Our children in Year Five and Six enjoyed another fabulous visit to Buckden House this February. As always, staff were so impressed by how pupils collaborated and worked in teams to overcome challenges in the cave, up the gill and on climbing activities. And this year we had the extra challenge of the snow! I am sure the photos give you an impression of just how good it was, we can't wait for the next visit!
