This week our P7 classes headed off to Greenhill YMCA in Newcastle for their first Brooklands residential. Sixty children and four staff had an excellent three days learning many new skills including archery and laser tag. They also scaled the climbing wall, sped down a zip line, climbed a mountain and conquered the team ropes challenge! Head now to the Gallery to see the PowerPoint of all the photographs.
Massive thanks must go to all of the amazing staff from Greenhill! From the beautiful dinners served by the wonderful catering team to the fantastic instructors who kept us all safe, we thank you all for looking after everyone so well. Our thanks also go to our own staff Mr Massey, Miss Duggan, Miss Lyon and Mrs S. Graham who gave up time with their own families to give our P7 pupils an experience which they will never forget.
