Our Year 3 pupils enjoyed a truly memorable two-night residential on the East Coast, filled with exploration, discovery and plenty of fun.
The trip began with a visit to Flamborough Head, where pupils explored rock pools and searched for fish, crabs and other coastal creatures. It was a fantastic hands-on experience, rounded off with a well-earned ice cream.
On the second day, after a hearty cooked breakfast, the group travelled to the North York Moors. Here, they enjoyed a scenic hike before heading down to a water source for an exciting session of stream dipping, discovering a wide range of fascinating wildlife along the way.
Their final day brought the adventure to a wonderful close. After making their own humane small creature catchers the evening before, the children were eager to check them in the morning and see what they had found. They then visited the stunning Bempton Cliffs, using binoculars to spot seabirds and take in the beautiful coastal views.
From rock pooling and stream dipping to time spent together and trying new experiences, the residential was full of highlights. It provided a fantastic opportunity for pupils to grow in confidence, independence and curiosity, creating memories that will stay with them for a long time.
