On May 18th three staff and twenty pupils set off to explore the coastline of Portishead, Clevedon and Weston-Super-Mare. As the pupils have been studying "Coasts" within their Geography lessons it was a perfect trip to see first hand the topics discussed within class.
We were fortunate that the weather was fantastic and the Bristol Channel was calm. The three different places held their own beauty and many pupils said they would visit again with their parents.
The highlights of the trip included the trek around Poet's Walk in Clevedon, the new marina in Portishead and lunch onthe clean golden sand of Weston's huge (deserted) beach but definitely at the top of everyone's list had to be the big surprise at the end of the day. We all took a ride on the gigantic observation wheel on Weston sea front followed by an ice-cream!
Many pupils remarked that it was the best school trip ever and they certainly learnt a huge amount.
