In a blink of an eye the Year 5 Buckden residential has come to an end. Huge thank you to all at staff at Buckden House who have helped our pupils show #courage #joy and #love in all the activities. We all wish we could stay longer but as the old saying goes “c’est la vie”💚

Group 4 stayed onsite and learnt how to be a wild survivor. They built dens, lit fires and used a bow and arrow. These skills are extremely important when surviving in the wild. #joy #courage #survivor

Group 5 had a fun filled morning on the high ropes. As they waited for their turn, they challenged themselves to some teamwork games and problem solving tasks. #courage #love #joy
