30th September 19
On the 19th and 20th of September, our Year 5 girls had an amazing time by the River Thames near Marlow at the Longridge activity centre. The weather was perfect, the setting gorgeous and the activities super fun. The girls took part in five different activities over the 2 days, involving water orbs, dragon boating, team challenges, climbing and raft building. Often, the girls had to work together as teams to solve problems, complete tasks and even to row a boat. They did Maltman’s Green proud, pushing themselves outside of their comfort zones to achieve self-set goals and it was magical to see the sheer joy and excitement when they succeeded. They showed resilience and determination, two of our mindsets, and were so supportive of each other.
There were smiling faces all round and although a little tired on Friday morning, they all rallied to finish their final tasks and activities. The trip came to a close with a picnic in the sunshine overlooking the river as the girls reminisced on two fun-filled days.
Many thanks to our enthusiastic teachers who accompanied the girls.
