Exciting Activities on the Isle of Wight

From Friday 9th to Monday the 12th of May Year 7 and 8 Warblington students went to Little Canada on the Isle of Wight. Amazing food, amazing activities, amazing people! On this residential the students participated in team and confidence building activities, which came in the form of climbing, abseiling, dragon boat racing, Jacob’s ladder, scavenger hunts and many many more

The students’ behaviour was outstanding throughout the whole of the trip. They made new friends and memories. Many of them gained personal achievements: Tom Benfield was first to go on the giant swing by himself all the way to the top! Morgan Rixon, though terrified of the smugglers tunnels to begin with, ventured into the dark! Richard Mann showed amazing skill and intelligence in the Matrix!

The children worked together amazingly well in Jacob’s ladder and supported one another in more challenging activities such as abseiling. The evening activities were enjoyed by all the students, especially robot wars and the disco! Our PGL groupie made us all feel very welcome and the students responded to him really well, he even helped them to victory in the dragon boat racing! It was an extremely successful weekend. I hope the Year 7s return next year and encourage more friends to come along too!
