Altrincham College of the Arts set of today from Cheshire for their three day Outward Bound Experience at OB Ullswater.
A group of 28 Sixth Form students began their journey North at 10am this morning 7th October 2011. Head of Sixth Form Katherine Tovey did her best to put across the sheer level of excitement from the youngsters as they were gathering for their final briefing and kit check.
"Many of the students have never been to the Lake District, many more of them have never had an experience in the outdoors." She went on to say that "She hoped this would be the opening of a door to some fantastic new experiences for these youngsters and that the experience would help them to realise strengths and abilities that they never knew they had"
All of us at Bramwell International wish the youngsters and Katherine well this weekend and hope to hear how the three day course went very soon.
