Nineteen Year 8 students, Ms Ryan and Mr Green spent a week in March at the Pendarren House Outdoor Education Centre in Wales. By all accounts they had a great time.
Nurselim Tekin 8I writes: “I think every student should go to Pendarren. It’s so adventurous and fun. I faced all my fears and at the end I was very proud of myself. I couldn’t believe I did it! Davina Jackson‐Keen writes: “I thought that Pendarren was really fun. The best bits were when we went caving. We got to do things that we couldn’t ever do at home. We went through the letterbox in the morning and abseiled into the cave in the afternoon. The highlight of the caving was pushing Mr A (our guide) into the cold lake at the end, and then most of us jumped in after him!” Phiri O’Grady writes: I enjoyed Pendaren because of the great activities such as canoeing, walking and caving. I enjoyed caving the most because it was in dark small wet spaces. I did not enjoy the walk because we walked for miles and it was so wet.” Muna Sharif 8I: Excellent History Powerful Leaders Project Derya Inkaya 8I: Excellent History Powerful Leaders Project Berivan Korkmaz 8I: Excellent History Powerful Leaders Project Ellio Edwards 8I: Excellent History Powerful Leaders Project Omid Nazari 8I: Excellent History Powerful Leaders Project Artoo Martinez‐Cebrian 8I: Excellent History Powerful Leaders Project Natty Stark 7H: Outstanding work on Heritage in English.
