MORE than 150 Year 7 students from Flixton Girls School took part in a week of thrills and spills at the Outward Bound Centre at Ullswater in Cumbria.
The main purpose for this residential was for the students to have increased awareness of their own skills and abilities and to improve their confidence and self-belief in their own abilities.
All students and staff took part in team building and physical challenges including mountain walking, canoeing, 'jog and dip' and other outdoor activities. All the students attempted every challenge, making the most of their time at the centre and achieving great personal goals.
Student Georgia Clare commented: ‘Outward Bound was great and I really loved helping to organise and support my team. I am looking forward to attending future courses."
