Year 6 pupils from St Cuthbert's Catholic Primary School in Crook have completed a fantastic residential visit to Ford Castle, packed with adventure, teamwork and new experiences.

The residential got off to a flying start, with pupils taking on a challenge course, laser tag and disc golf. They also managed to enjoy England’s winning goal, adding to the excitement of an action-filled first day.

The adventure continued with another brilliant day of activities, including aero ball, zip wire sessions, river rafting and Passport to the World. Throughout the residential, pupils showed great energy, determination and enthusiasm as they embraced every challenge.

Whether battling it out on the aero ball court, tackling the thrill of the zip wire or working together on the water during river rafting, Year 6 demonstrated impressive teamwork and resilience. They supported one another, celebrated successes together and persevered whenever challenges arose.

The Ford Castle residential provided pupils with the opportunity to build confidence, develop new skills and create lasting memories with their classmates. From start to finish, Year 6 approached every activity with positivity and determination, making the trip a thoroughly successful and rewarding experience.

Everyone at St Cuthbert's Catholic Primary School is proud of the way Year 6 represented the school throughout the residential and the excellent attitude they showed during their time at Ford Castle.
