Dorset Walk Update: Today we successfully conquered Day 2! Students (and staff!) have been amazing and shown real strength. Day two is always a difficult one even before we factor in the sun!

The sea breeze has been very welcome today on the coastal paths.

Onwards to Day Three!

Dorset Walk update:

It’s been a warm and challenging day, but the students have done brilliantly! We’ll be starting earlier tomorrow so we can finish a bit sooner. Thank you all for your continued support.

Residential Update

After another fun-packed day, we were all exhausted by the end - well, the adults were! The students, full of energy and excitement, kept going until late into the evening. It’s been a day full of laughter, learning, and unforgettable moments.

New friendships have been formed, old ones strengthened, and the teamwork on display has been nothing short of amazing.

Today, we’re kicking off with bushcraft and climbing before enjoying some lunch and heading home. We’ll share an estimated time of arrival (ETA) once we’re on the road later.

One thing is certain—there will be some very tired (but happy!) travellers tonight. Especially the adults!

Memories made. Bonds built. A truly special experience for all.

Residential Update! After a safe arrival yesterday, we jumped straight into the fun — making beds, settling in, and diving into an action-packed afternoon! The evening brought a whirlwind of activities: buggy building, orienteering, football, rounders, and of course, a cozy campfire with hot chocolate, marshmallows, singing, and laughter all around Despite the excitement (and plenty of sweets and biscuits), sleep didn’t come easily for everyone… but eventually, the rooms fell quiet in the early hours Today, it’s full steam ahead with ziplining, problem-solving, Jacob’s Ladder, more buggy building, a scrapheap challenge, and even a visit to the shop Here’s hoping all this adventure means they sleep just a little earlier tonight!
