Year 1 and 2 visit to Dukeshouse Wood

Last week the boys in Year 1 and 2 had an amazing adventure at Dukeshouse Wood in Hexham. During their 3 day and 2 night residential the boys were lucky enough to experience a range of amazing activities, including an obstacle course, mini beast hunt, high ropes, fencing, problem solving and climbing. The boys all showed incredible character, with their resilience, leadership, courage and community spirit at the forefront.
 
Staff and other visitors alike regularly commented on how impressed they were by the behaviour and attitude of our boys, who were the youngest children there by a number of years. Mrs Ferry, Mrs Elliot and Mrs Clayton were incredibly proud of the boys who all acted as excellent ambassadors for Newcastle School for Boys.
