I am absolutely delighted to inform you that following the immensely successful residential in Year 5 last year we are again offering the opportunity for your child to take part in one this year. We have decided to return to Path Hill Outdoors in Whitchurch, but with a few really exciting differences.
On Thursday 20th and 21st June we will be heading down to the outdoor centre at Path Hill to take part in a variety of different activities including water sports, building fires, outdoor cooking and a day themed around our Summer Topic, World War II. The children will camp overnight in bell tents and take the lead in preparing and cooking their own meals.
After generous FOWPS and cake sale contributions the cost of the two-day residential will be £81 per child. We’re aware that the price has increased since last year due to running costs at Path Hill, so we have incorporated our Summer Topic of World War II into the residential and will not be going on another trip this year. The price also includes a full day of water sports activities organised by the qualified and skilled team at Path Hill which has us all really excited.

This is an incredibly exciting and rewarding opportunity for the children (and staff!). Please see the letters below for more information.
