EDUCATIONAL VISITS FINLAND — ICE FISHING AND MORE This year for the first time ever, Reading School was delighted to introduce two trips to Finland, due to popular demand for Years 7 and 8 only. The two expeditions were overseen by Mr T Evans (Assistant Head) and required extensive planning. The pupils and staff found this experience both extremely challenging and rewarding undertaking ice fishing, igloo building and skiing. All the participants displayed great resilience and took up each challenge with positivity building team skills and collaboration techniques — skills essential to ‘Building Good Men’ whilst embedding independence. Thank you to the team of staff that led and enabled these trips to go ahead, providing individual expertise in developing our boys.
TRIP TO BERLIN Year 12 History students visited Berlin in March 2020. The purpose of this educational trip is to visit a range of sites related to World War II and the Cold War and give students deeper understanding of life under Communism, an area which is studied in Year 12.
