Year 5 Spotlight

A Great Camp!

Last week, the Year 5 cohort ventured to Anglesea for their three-day camp. It was a success all round with students enjoying time on the beach, participating in group activities, flying high on the giant swing and, of course, enjoying the fun of sleeping in a room with their friends!

Here are some quotes from the students about their ‘best bits’ of camp.
