Another busy day in the Lake District. Three of our groups are away on their overnight expedition, with the rest gorge-scrambling and jumping into Ullswater from a cliff ledge!

Safely arrived at our accomodation. Rooms have been sorted and a jog and a dip before tea was just what we all needed!

Getting prepped for tomorrow's activities 💪

Arrived safely at the accomodation. Our week of adventure has started with a splash!

Year 6 have finished their final day of activities, they've had lots of fun on beaches and in the water exploring the Pembrokeshire coastline.

Year 3 and 4 are all tucked up in bed of their residential after a busy day of activities! Fingers crossed we get plenty more sunshine tomorrow ☀️

We have reached the end of our first action packed day. Everyone is looking forward to more fun in the sun tomorrow.

Feeling refreshed after our first night, having had a delicious breakfast before an action packed, sunny day ☀️

On the list for today is:
• surfing
• raft building
• paddle boarding
• coasteering
• beach games
• wild swimming

Last night involved 'bum boarding', a delicious hot chocolate and a snowball fight, lots of fun and more happy memories made.

We finally managed to catch up with some of the other ski groups, who were enjoying having some of the more advanced runs to themselves this morning. ❄️⛷️☀️

Another great sunny day on the slopes. Everyone is making amazing progress, having lots of fun during their lessons. It snowed up on the mountains last night and so there was some fresh snow to enjoy today as well. ❄️⛷️

Phew! What a long day that was. After a long journey here, we collected our ski equipment, so that we are ready to start first thing tomorrow morning. The children are already asleep. 😴😴😴

Our trip winners. These delightful students displayed some of the excellent attributes and characteristics we strive for in Crosfields. Crosfields School

An absolutely brilliant time yesterday, we went to a lovely food market, visited a bull ring and had a brilliant time cooking paella. All of the students got involved and had so much fun! Year 7 have been absolutely amazing and a wonderful group to take on a trip.

Sunny days and absorbing the local culture. Dance show not pictured, but we were very impressed with the talent!

Year 7 loved the aquarium and all of the wonderful animals they saw.

A great, but tiring first day. We still can't believe it's not wintery weather here! 🌞☀️🌡️

On more mundane matters, I will
post travel updates tomorrow!

Although there is one day to go, I would like to take this opportunity to thank a few people.

Firstly the parents for trusting us to take away your son/daughter(s) and supporting this trip. They have all been an absolute credit to you all and a pleasure to take away.

To the staff, especially Mr Murray-Smith. Organising and running a school trip is both time
consuming and hard work, especially a ski trip which tends to throw up more complications than normal. Mr Murray-Smith, Mrs Reid, Miss Quick and Mr Dyson have all been amazing at encouraging, comforting and supporting every pupil here and ensuring that everyone had as good a time as possible.

And lastly to the students. You have made us laugh, made us proud, made us marvel
at your ability to keep going when totally exhausted and just made us really happy to be on this trip
with you- Thank you all for making it so rewarding to be here as your teachers.
