Our Year 5 and 6 students headed off yesterday to the Isle of Wight for their residential trip.

They have an exciting week ahead of them, with lots of fun activities planned!  After enjoying their evening meal, they played games in the park before settling in for the night in their dorm rooms.

Today they are off to visit Carisbrooke Castle followed by Laser Quest!
