Form 6 pupils have had an unforgettable week on their five-day residential in Swanage, taking part in a variety of exciting and challenging activities. The trip has been a fantastic opportunity for the children to build their resilience by stepping out of their comfort zones, making their own choices and strengthening their teamwork skills.
A highlight for many was the coasteering session, where every pupil showed tremendous bravery by tackling the rugged coastline and leaping into the sea. Despite some initial nerves, everyone rose to the challenge and supported each other with enthusiasm and encouragement. A surprise visit from Ron the Seal added to the fun and boosted spirits even further!
The group also enjoyed a full day at the beach, making the most of the sunshine with jumbo paddle boards, obstacle courses, team games and fun in the water. The day was rounded off with a classic seaside fish and chip supper and a very successful crabbing session, much to the delight of all involved.
The weather has been mostly kind, with the sun shining on our adventures. It’s been a memorable and rewarding experience for everyone, and while we’ve loved every moment, we are now looking forward to returning home on Friday.
