Last week Year 5 and 6 were lucky enough to have some First Aid Training as part of our Healthy Hearts sessions.

Residential has shown us how teamwork is so important and as the children took part in a human crane activity it became even more evident. Communication, trust and a strong team that works together are the magic ingredients. Eagles class are very special and have all these important elements in abundance.

Look at some balancing act photos here.

We ventured on the River Soar, which was amazing and a very wet experience. Wellies and waterproofs wee of no use with the cascading waterfall and the splashing girls. What a lot of fun was had by all.

From the ground, it looked easy. From the sky things changed. The challenge was on- who dares go first? James, Sean, Lewis and Emily are high rope superstars.

The children were all amazing and helped each other overcome nerves and fear. The platform wobbled, the children dangled and the ropes swung wildly, yet everyone felt a sense of achievement . The instructors were fabulous and encouraged us all.
