P7 Residential Trip to Dalguise

Twenty one P7 pupils recently went on a residential trip to Dalguise House, an outdoor activity centre in Perthshire.  Pupils were able to take part in many activities including a 70 foot tree climb, abseiling, raft building, canoeing, quad-biking and archery.  The pupils engaged in problem solving activities and supported each other through some of the challenging activities.  The evening activities included Robot Wars. Ambush game, campire and a disco.  A great time was had by all and everyone slept very well on the Friday night after they returned.

Quotes from pupils:

“My favourite activity was the catwalk because I got the certificate for Catwalk Queen at the end of the trip” Morgan

“My favourite thing during the week was raft building because it was fun to build the rafts and float on them. My least favourite part was getting up in the morning”        Claire S

“I really enjoyed the trip and I would recommend it to next years P7”  Dylan F

“It turns out that I conquered my fear of heights which I am so happy about!”    Sophie B

“I am not a fan of heights but I got up to the tower, put on a harness and I jumped off that tower and screamed.  I absolutely loved it! I loved it so much I did it twice and it was my favourite activity of the week!”   Linzi
