The Year 6 Residential

Lesson: Personal, Social and Emotional Education

Class: Year 6 Year: 2022 - 2023

Year 6 returned on Sunday from a fabulous hiking residential trip to beautiful Yorkshire, staying in the Malham YHA. We began with a stunning hike along the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail and the next day completed the circular walk around Malham Cove, stopping to see Gordale Scar and Janet’s Floss. There was also opportunity for exploring, paddling, fossil casting and a crash course in map reading making use of GPS (grass pointing sticks) to follow a route on a map. Behaviour was exemplary and we received so many compliments from members of the public. Other more experienced walkers were delighted to see a school still providing this type of opportunity for children. I want to say a huge thank you to Mrs Bishop, Ms Bennett and Miss Privilege for giving up their weekend to make this experience possible as well as the 24/7 TLC they provided for our children. It is easy to take for granted the great generosity of spirit shown by Hatton Hill staff. We appreciate the kind comments we have received from parents.
