Miss Thompson, Mrs Robottom and Mrs Shipley were very proud to take RS to Knaresborough this week; they were all such brilliant ambassadors for ACE. Mr Carter drove the minibus to Headingley station, where we caught the train to Knaresborough. After walking down the cobbles to the riverside, the children were obviously “starving” so we had our second bagels of the morning. Birds on the River Nidd squabbled over the spares. Short legs were challenged by the 117 steep steps to the remains of Knaresborough Castle, which we sketched after careful observation. Thank you to the school kitchen team for our delicious packed lunch. Ring games and races helped us to warm up before we made our way back down to the river. Highly anticipated Calipos were slurped as we watched the intrepid rowers in the wooden boats. Many of the children seemed keen to try out the boats if any parents and carers fancy that over the summer holidays! Thank you to the parent volunteers, who accompanied us for the day. We really appreciate your support.

More photos will be shared during our Arts Celebration in the last week of term.
