23rd May 22
From Thursday 12 to Friday 13 May, Year 3 enjoyed a residential trip to Longridge in Marlow. The girls were all very excited to take part in adventurous activities and sleep overnight in a TENT!
After arriving, they enjoyed a packed lunch before making their way to their first activities for the day. These included areoball, laser tag, team challenges and a climbing wall. The girls were all so brave and set themselves their own challenges such as climbing the wall to different heights. Aeroball was an energetic mix of trampolining and basketball and the team challenges really stimulated the girls thinking skills to solve problems collaboratively.
By the evening the girls had certainly worked up an appetite and enjoyed a scrumptious dinner. Torches on, books out, pjs on – they were all set for a night of adventure in their tents sleeping under the stars.
The next day, woken up by the sounds of wildlife, they were ready for more new experiences. After breakfast, the girls set off for another challenge – Dragon Boat races down the River Thames! They learnt lots of new skills such as holding a paddle correctly, rowing forward, back and stopping in the water. What a brilliant end to their trip in the sunshine.
The Year 3 teachers were all so proud of how the girls tackled new challenges, made new friends and worked as a team.
