In the Summer Term, usually June, our Year 4 class go on a 2 night residential trip to Hooke Court in Dorset. The children are usually accompanied by 2 teachers and at least 2 teaching assistants.
In June 2020 both Year 3 and 4 will be going together!
Each year we write a blog while we are away so that parents can see what we have been up to and send the class messages. Any children who haven't gone on the trip can send messages too, letting their classmates know what they are doing too.
We hold an information evening each year and the class also have a presentation about the trip. You can see the presentation here.
You can read more about the types of activities we get up to below, and also see the kit list!
Ready for the off in 2018!
