Happy, kind and brave.
Together we learn, together we grow, together we soar.
Year 6 Residential Day 4
Our final day has arrived! We are all feeling quite tired now, but we still had enough energy to enjoy exploring the SS Great Britain.
This morning, we learned about Isambard Kingdom Brunel and some of his incredible creations during an engaging workshop. We then had the chance to try putting metal plates together using rivets, just as workers would have done when building the ship.
Next, we explored underneath the ship in the dry dock before stepping back in time and pretending to be Victorians attending the launch of the SS Great Britain. We looked fabulous in our costumes! We also enjoyed a tour of the ship and discovered what life would have been like for passengers and crew on board.
After lunch, it was time to return to the hostel, pack up the coach and begin our journey home.
What a fantastic bunch of children they have been to take away. They have represented the school brilliantly throughout the trip, and hopefully they have made some lifelong memories along the way.
We are travelling home with lots of tired children, and we're sure they will all sleep very well tonight!
