Year 4 Residential to Runways End

Year 4 had a thoroughly enjoyable time at Runways End, based in the Aldershot Camp on the edge of the Basingstoke Canal. Despite the unsettled weather, all the children participated in a range of activities that developed their confidence, listening skills and resilience. They pushed themselves individually through archery, caving and rock climbing, and strengthened their team building skills with canoeing, Egg Drop, orienteering and Water Rockets. We enjoyed the wonderful selection of food at mealtimes and facilities that were available, including the camp fire.

After 3 busy days of activities and learning new skills, including making their own beds, we are sure the children are looking forward to a well-deserved rest this evening.
We have been proud of how all the children have coped being away from home and embracing the opportunities provided. They represented SPS superbly.
