Romania Trip Day 1
Peak District trip
Over the weekend a group of our students had their preparation weekend in the Peak District for our Expedition Trip to Romania in July. They displayed amazing teamwork skills, showed great resilience in challenging circumstances and lived by each of our BCA values. We are now looking forward to working with them in the Bear Sanctuary in Romania, hiking in the Carphatians, visiting Bucharest and Dracula’s Castle. They are all an absolute asset to our school and we couldn’t be prouder of each and every one of them.
Day 1 – We arrived at the campsite and quickly set up all the tents for the weekend followed by cooking some delicious food. 🙂 It was lovely to see everyone doing their bit and preparing for the challenges that lay ahead over the weekend.
Day 2 – We had an amazing hike to the top of Mam Tor and despite some little challenges, none of us gave up. We all made it by working as a team, showing kindness and just being superstars. 🙂
Yr10 Trip to France
Visit To RAF Waddington
On Tuesday 21st February we took 22 service students and members of the aviation club to RAF Waddington to visit the Red Arrows. Students got to hear about how the jets were maintained, what type of training they do and most importantly they got to sit in the jets!
It was fantastic to see how passionate and enthusiastic the students were, they had lots of questions and showed off an impressive knowledge of aviation.
Trip to RAF Coningsby
Mrs Watson took a group of students to RAF Coningsby. What a day! Students had an opportunity to visit 12 squadron where they got up close to a Typhoon. They got to ask questions to pilots and engineers as well as looking at some noisy jets taking off.
The afternoon was spent at The Battle of Britain Memorial flight where students experienced priceless artefacts of our national heritage and got to hear about some of the battles that they were involved in!
A good day had by all.
