Two groups of children from Years 5 and 6 have visited the Yorkshire Dales in June 2003. Their visits were part of our 'Outdoor Education' programme. The groups stayed at Dentdale Youth Hostel and Foxwood Farm.

Activities enjoyed by the children included:

A visit to Malham
A torch-lit night walk
Raft-building
Canoeing
Adventurous caving

The pupils had to meet the challenge of building a raft from a few barrels, some wood and a supply of ropes. Some groups were more successful than others!

 

The most exciting activity was a trip underground with caving instructors Duncan and Graham. Fully equipped, the children overcame any fears and descended into the darkness.

During a two hour expedition close to Ribblehead Viaduct, the children were able to crawl and wriggle through caving challenges such as ‘The Slide of Oblivion ‘The Jaws of Death’ and the infamous ‘Worm Hole.

A stunning week of activities that was a perfect way for the children to bring their primary education to a close! ...High School here we come!
