Year 6 High Borrans Visit – May 2024

Dear parents / carers

As you know, Year 6 will have the opportunity to take part in a residential visit to High Borrans this May! We very much hope that all children who want to will take up this amazing opportunity.

High Borrans is an Outdoor Education Centre near Windermere in the Lake District. It is a self-contained centre, in its own grounds, which belongs to North Tyneside Council. The children will get the chance to visit some different parts of the Lake District and try out some expert-led activities, such as canoeing and Ghyll scrambling. They will develop independence, resilience and cooperative skills. To find out more about High Borrans and what they offer, click this link.

The visit is during the school week. Children will be away on the visit for two nights and three days as follows:

• 6L and 6IB – Monday 20th May to Wednesday 22nd May

The children are accompanied by our own school staff on the visit.

Children who choose not to take up this opportunity/ or unable to can remain in school.
