Year 5 Visit Croft Farm

Year 5 pupils enjoyed an adventurous Activity Week residential, taking on water sports, outdoor challenges and an overnight camp.

Year 5 pupils from Cheltenham Prep enjoyed an exciting residential at Croft Farm as part of Activity Week, spending two days taking on a variety of outdoor adventures.

Pupils embraced a range of water-based activities on both the lake and the river, showing determination and enthusiasm as they stepped outside their comfort zones. Whether trying something new for the first time or encouraging their friends, every pupil approached the challenges with confidence and a positive attitude.

After a busy day of activities, the group settled into their bell tents for an overnight stay, making the most of the camping experience before another day of adventure.

The residential was a fantastic opportunity for pupils to develop confidence, resilience and teamwork while creating lasting memories with their classmates.
