Chestnut & Rowan at Magdelen Farm

Chestnut & Rowan at Magdelen Farm

Chestnut & some of Rowan class are thoroughly enjoying their time at Magdelen Farm.  For some this is the first time they’ve been away for not just one night but two!

They have really enjoyed a variety of activities from orienteering, spending time with the animals, tasting produce in the polytunnels, foraging in the woods and cooking over a campfire.

More tomorrow………….

Juniper sailing at Portland Sailing Centre

Juniper sailing at Portland Sailing Centre

Juniper class enjoyed a trip to Portland  to set sail on the Weymouth waters. We joined our friends in Oak class in the sail boats and headed out across the harbour. It was a great experience for all the boys and was fully accessible for everyone . Staff at the centre were very accommodating and couldn’t do enough for us all. Both Juniper boys got so much out of the hours sail, giving them a sense of freedom and enjoying the wind on their faces, thankfully the weather stayed on our side and we saw the sunshine. We hope to have this experience again  in the future.

Rowan Class – Bank of Dreams and Nightmares

On Wednesday 17th September, The Bank of Dreams and Nightmares came into Rowan class to carry out a workshop on speech writing. This was a really fun and engaging morning and we all wrote some excellent speeches. Many thanks to Ed, Nick, Diana and Lizzie who came in and made our morning magical. We especially loved the badge making! They will be back in the spring term for another session with our work typed up too!

Elm Class visit to Rockburn

Elm Class visit to Rockburn

Elm class had an amazing trip to Rockburn bouldering centre in Bridport! All of us enjoyed exploring a new place. The centre owner Will Martin helped us to stay safe whilst we had a go at climbing. Then we had our snacks in the cafe area. Lastly we had more climbing time, and some of us had a much needed rest on the sofas!
