Well done to all involved.
Pupils have a splashing goodtime learning paddle sports
Before the recent floods, students attending our outdoor education centre have been making the most of our riverside location to get some oar-some watersport experience. Pupils tackling the physical section of their Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme have been learning about Paddle sports and how to assess risk when in a water environment. In their latest session, they have been practicing peer rescues, and how to assess the environment to keep each other safe.
