What a wonderful time we have had on our residential! The sun was shining to whole time, which meant we could spend all our time outside, perfect to complete all the outdoor activities PGL had to offer! Every single child has reached their potential, challenged themselves to push beyond what they thought they were capable of and have shown such resilience and bravery! We could not be any prouder of them all. Every single one of them have supported their friends and as you can see from the photos there has been so much laughter and joy. We have all climbed, swung from a giant swing, shot arrows in archery, build a raft for on the lake and completed many problems and challenges- it was a very varied week!
The final night, was the perfect finale of our stay as we were treated to array of talented acts at the campfire. From theatrical performances, poems, dances, magic acts and a guitarist, to name but a few! What a range of talented bunch of children you have!
Enjoy the photos below which sums up our wonderful time away together making memories to stay in our hearts forever…
DAY ONE
DAY TWO
DAY THREE
Peter Pan
Year 6 have now all been given their roles for the end of year play- we are so excited to get started on it! I know each child will embrace their role and they will be encouraged both at school and home with great enthusaism! Every role in the play is crucial. Just like in a team, each member plays a significant part in working towards the shared goal. They will contribute to the overall success of the performance as a whole and help create something truly memorable. It will be a show you won’t forget because they all played a part in creating it and we can’t wait!

Leading Learners
Well done to Jacob!
Jacob we were so proud of your bravery during residential… you started off nervous and cautious in some of the activities but the next day you woke up with a fresh attitude. We loved the way you challenged yourself to go beyond what you thought you could do- this takes such bravery!
Curious and Active stars
This half term we will be on the lookout for all the children that are curious in their , finding God in all things. Those who are active, who use their learning for the common good. Those who learn through actively engaging through probing, seeking, asking, challenging and questioning until the truth is plain. These children are the role models of the school, who drive their own learning and who have the wisdom to know when and how to apply one’s learning. This week we thank Rose for being both curious and wise.
