Woodlands Residential

On Wednesday 7^th May year 5 embarked on their residential trip to Woodlands. After quickly settling into their dormitory the children went on their first activity. The children did a range of activities whilst they were there. They did: High rope climbing, assault course, canoeing, zip wire (over the lake) and archery. On the first evening the children ate a chip shop dinner, before taking a trip to the sportshall. Here they took part in a variety of team races which tested their sporting skills in a number of different sporting areas. After this, the children had hot chocolate before going to bed. The next day saw the children having a dorm inspection before they went on their second activity. After a quick lunch they did their third activity. Then, the children had dinner and took part in problem solving activities. Unfortunately, due to the weather the children were not able to have a campfire, but they were able to watch a talent show put on by the children themselves. Friday morning saw the children packing (strangely not everything would fit back in the suitcase). Next, the children played Frisbee golf and had a look around the animal sanctuary.

The children behaved impeccably during the trip and really did the school proud. Every child tried their best and accomplished many personal goals whilst at Woodlands!!!
