Year 5 PGL Trip

Day 1 The students partook in climbing, problem solving and fencing. They enjoyed working with Orchard and Southwold and exploring new activities. Many faced their fears and smashed their new challenges.   Day 2 In the morning the children were up early for breakfast before heading to the first activities of the day. Some of them got wet, whilst others abseiled or practiced firing a bow and arrow. After a morning of activities, the children refuelled before setting off again. They have been enjoying socialising and making new friends with children from our partnership schools. They have also loved working as a team when presented with the challenges of the activities.   Day 3 Yesterday, the children danced the night…

Day 1

The students partook in climbing, problem solving and fencing. They enjoyed working with Orchard and Southwold and exploring new activities. Many faced their fears and smashed their new challenges.

 

Day 2

In the morning the children were up early for breakfast before heading to the first activities of the day. Some of them got wet, whilst others abseiled or practiced firing a bow and arrow.

After a morning of activities, the children refuelled before setting off again. They have been enjoying socialising and making new friends with children from our partnership schools. They have also loved working as a team when presented with the challenges of the activities.

 

Day 3

Yesterday, the children danced the night away, played games and relaxed. They were all incredibly tired after a long day so we slept well throughout the night.

Thank you for having us PGL. We are all homeward bound ready to share our amazing memories with family and friends.

 

Reminiscing

The three schools are back at school today but the children are reminiscing about all the fun they had whilst we were away. They have so many stories to tell of the fun they shared with new friends.
