A group of year 5 and 6 children have just returned from a fantastic week at Derwent Hill in the beautiful English Lake District 

The children had an action packed week with some great outdoor activities including: canoeing, mountain walking, gorge walking and of course the infamous “big swing.”

It was great to see how our children have pushed themselves to achieve some great things during their visit and have made memories that will stay with them for a long time to come. All children have returned with a new set of skills in confidence, teamwork, communication and a healthy respect for their wider environment.

You can view our Google Photos Album to see loads of photos and videos  taken from the week.

Derwent Hill is open to children in year 6 each year and letters will be going out for our June 2026 visit in early September.
