Year 7 Residential
Bushcraft Trip: Wednesday 2 October to Friday 4 October 2024.
This is an amazing trip for our Year 7 students - the purpose is for many reasons but to establish a strong year group community, build friendships and explore outdoor life and living. There will be opportunities to learn basic survival skills such as shelter building, building and maintaining a fire, outdoor cooking and survival first aid. This is a two night, three day residential; we anticipate the cost of this being around £200-£250 per student for the entire trip.
Our aim is for every student to attend. Therefore, if you require financial support, please indicate in the register of interest form.
