More adventures on the Isle of Wight

Last week, we shared highlights from the first group’s unforgettable residential trip to the Isle of Wight. This week, we’re shining a spotlight on the second group’s experiences – and what a trip they had.

From the moment they arrived, our learners embraced every opportunity with enthusiasm and positivity. Their time on the island was filled with memorable moments, exciting activities, and plenty of laughter.

Highlights included a stunning visit to The Needles, where learners took in the breathtaking coastal views, and a step back in time at Carisbrooke Castle, where they explored the ancient battlements and uncovered fascinating stories from the past.

The fun continued at Robin Hill Country Park, where adventure and creativity came together, and at the magical Blackgang Chine, which sparked imagination at every turn.

Evenings were just as lively, with bowling and crazy golf bringing out the team spirit and friendly competition in everyone.

More than just a trip away, this residential was a chance for our students to grow in confidence, strengthen friendships, and build new skills in a supportive and fun environment. We’re incredibly proud of how they represented the school and of the positive way they tackled each new challenge.

Well done to everyone involved – and thank you to the team who helped make it such a special experience.
