A couple of weeks ago, 36 children from years 4,5 and 6 went on a residential visit to Derwent Hill.

We had a fantastic weekend packed full of activities and new adventures.

When we first arrived we sorted out our beds and dormitories. Then we went for a night walk where we had to read maps and walk around Lake Derwentwater.

The scenery was fabulous, we even saw baby lambs and sheep.

The activities that the different groups took part in included, rock climbing or a ropes course, gorge walking and canoeing or kayaking.

On the Saturday evening we got to do some more map reading in the grounds.

It was a really fun weekend where everyone tried something different.
