Year 5 and 6 children from St Lawrence and Tibberton schools went to Manor Adventure near Craven Arms for a week of team building, outdoor adventure fun and mud last week. They behaved well, as we would expect, with their instructors commenting on how polite they were. Federation staff loved watching the children work together, support one another and face fears as they completed a wide range of activities, from abseiling to high ropes, from obstacle courses to axe throwing, from crate stack to rifle shooting. Our Christian values were truly lived out, through courage, kindness, respect and compassion.
Children and staff made some wonderful memories, and friendships were forged across our two schools. We are starting to look at options for next year’s residential, and can’t wait to see the children embrace this aspect of learning again.
