An unforgettable day of exploration and discovery on the South Downs!

Year 5 and 6 pupils will embark on an exciting geographical adventure, tracking the River Hamble from its source and conquering the summit of Old Winchester Hill. This hands-on experience will bring our Geography curriculum to life as we learn about mountains and rivers in the most spectacular classroom of all – God’s beautiful creation!

This trip perfectly combines our Geography and Art curricula, giving pupils a real-world context for their classroom learning and creating memories that will last a lifetime.
