C29 Outward Bound Day 2

As you know, we were out camping on night 2 so we couldn’t quite get all footage together when away from the camp!

Here is a belated video of what we got up to:

Keep your eyes peeled for Day 3!

E28/Crew Malala Make it to the top of the mountain!

Yesterday we canoed from the centre to the start of our walk and then walked all the way to the summit of Place Fell – 625m! We truly reached the top of the mountain in every sense of the word! Crew showed absolute resilience and courage on a really tough walk. Last night we were the highest camped Crew! A massive achievement. Alex and Izzy led the navigation. 
Today we walked down the mountain and to our climbing spot. Everyone had a go at both climbs. It was brilliant to see the encouragement and support students showed each other as they were climbing. Tomorrow is our last day and we will be presenting our learning and answering the guiding question: What does crew mean to us?

Good afternoon all,

We were all up bright and early this morning for breakfast in preparation for our busy day of activities!

A number of Crews have already canoed or rowed across the lake ready to walk up a mountain and camp overnight.

We won’t be having phone time this evening as the places we are headed have no signal. With this in mind, if you feel you need to contact someone, you can reach out to Mrs Vayro or Mr Portman on the following emails:

E28 Yorkshire Sculpture Park Fieldwork

Students in E28/Year 8 will be visiting Yorkshire Sculpture Park in Wakefield.

This will form part of their immersion for their first expedition of Year 8. 

Students will be visiting on Tuesday – 6th September 2022.

We will be travelling by coach, departing at around 9:15 AM and returning at approximately 15:00 PM.

Students will need to bring a packed lunch unless they access free school meals, in which case school will provide one for them. 

This is an outdoor site so students will be required to take a waterproof jacket/coat in case of wet weather, and wear suitable footwear (old trainers).

Usual school rules will apply in terms of mobile phones and these should not be used by students on the bus. Students may wish to take devices such as iPads to take any photographs or to make notes.

If your child needs to take any medication, please inform their Crew Leader so that any necessary arrangements can be made. 

All medication should be labelled with their name, and passed to a member of staff.

If you have any questions about the day, feel free to contact [email protected]
