Event - Alton Castle Retreat

16 to 18 September 2019

The Year 6 pupils, and staff members who accompanied them, enjoyed a fantastic retreat at Alton Castle from 16th to 18th September.

The theme of their retreat was ‘Discipleship’ and the aim was to ‘Encounter Jesus’ in all activities, meditations and actions undertaken.

During their retreat, pupils in Year 6 were able to undertake activities such as archery, biking, climbing, survival and trekking. Throughout these activities, the pupils were challenged to try their hardest, overcome their fears and persevere to the end. Part way through each activity the pupils and staff would stop for a meditation and explore further how God wants us to live.

Friendships were strengthened and the retreat enabled pupils to achieve their best!
