Year 9 Stubbers Residential

Our Year 9 pupils recently returned from an exciting residential trip to Stubbers Adventure Centre, filled with adventure and opportunities to challenge themselves.

During the trip, pupils took part in a variety of activities, including paddle boarding, high ropes, and caving.

As their third adventure residential, the trip provided a valuable opportunity to reflect on how much our Year 9 pupils have grown over the past three years. It was wonderful to see the confidence, independence, and empathy they demonstrated. From encouraging friends to take on challenges to offering reassurance during difficult moments, they consistently showed the importance of teamwork, resilience, and mutual support.

One of the most rewarding aspects of the residential was seeing pupils step away from technology and the distractions of everyday life. Without phones and screens, they spent their time talking, laughing, working together, and creating lasting memories.
