Last week Year 4 ventured off on their long-awaited residential trip to the Gordon Brown Centre, and what a week we had.
The children took part in a number of outdoor activities over the course of three days, which developed their teamwork, communication, resilience and problem-solving skills. They also enjoyed working together to set up and clean up during meal times, organise themselves for bed and pack up their cases at the end of the week.
Have a look at some of the exciting activities we tried.
