8th June, Year 7 set off for the shores of Lake Windermere with their teachers, ready to be taken out of their comfort zone.\u00a0 A key part of our Year 7 experience is uniting all students and providing outdoor education opportunities where they learn to work as a team, trust themselves and one another, and take on challenges they never thought possible \u2013 all while having the time of their lives!\r\n\r\nYear 7 arrived at YMCA Lakeside excited for their full-on activity programme.\u00a0 \u00a0There were plenty of problem solving initiatives including a brilliant time raft building on the lakeshore,\u00a0 developing archery skills and much teamwork and laughter as everyone took on many challenges, highlights being The Zip Wire and The Blue Tube challenge.\r\n\r\n<strong>We asked
