Boarders go camping!

Year 9 and Year 12 boarders headed off to the Forest of Dean to enjoy a night under canvas and a range of activities including raft building, caving and climbing.  
After pitching tents, (some more successfully and quicker than others!), students enjoyed a fantastic barbeque followed by lots of singing round the camp fire.  Campers woke early but despite the short night and cool temperatures were in good spirits for their fitness filled day ahead.  The weather was kind with blue skies and sunshine throughout the trip and much fun was had by all!
