2nd October

Our Year 6 adventurers enjoyed a fun filled first day at Marchants Hill PGL. They climbed the daunting Jacob’s Ladder and tested their limits, demonstrating a true sense of teamwork and collaboration to be able to reach the higher runs.They also enjoyed archery lessons and competitions and their dinner was a feast fit for a king.

We can’t wait to update you on today’s excitement.

Our incredible Year 6 adventurers have continued to have an amazing time here at Marchants Hill, with a morning filled with paddle boarding, survival lessons, a fun shop visit and a very scrumptious lunch of burgers and chips – and of course a salad bar.

4th October

Yesterday afternoon and evening, here at Marchants Hill, it was packed with abseiling, orienteering and a disco.

We’ve had the most amazing time at Marchants Hill and are now on our way home. See you all soon!
