  • Just One Tree Day

    Published 18/10/24

    On Friday 18th of October we had a fantastic JUST ONE Tree Day! The children wore green and learnt lots about protecting our planet. It was a fun and educational day for all.


    What’s even better is that we raised £660 meaning our school’s forest now stands at a whopping 660 trees and absorbing 203.28 tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere. Our forest will be creating homes for wildlife, raising rural employment, protecting coastlines, capturing water, cleaning the air we breathe and most importantly, tackling climate change.


    We’re so pleased that our school community is having such a positive impact.

    After a long journey, we arrived safely at the Pioneer Centre. Everyone is currently settling in and will be jumping into their first activity shortly.

    We have settled in beautifully. Our first activity was climbing and zip wire, which we all thoroughly enjoyed and are all feeling proud of our achievements. We will have a short break and then onto the next activity. Weather is dry!

    After a short break, we jumped into our second activity where we enjoyed some archery and a high rope course. The weather has continued to be good. We are now off to eat some dinner!

    6pm

    Today has been a busy day with raft building, caving, abseiling and archery. The raft building was the highlight as we got to build and sail our own rafts. We all got very wet but it was a memorable experience for all. This evening we have a film night and will rest before tomorrow's activities. We hope to leave at midday and will update the school to know when we will arrive. All the children have had a great time and have represented the school proudly.
