day was enjoyed by all, despite dubious weather, and while we were all having fun we also raised money for a worthwhile cause, which will allow us to sponsor an item of equipment a t a local children’s ward.”

EIGHT pupils were chosen to take part in a Clitheroe high school’s first “gifted and talent­ ed” residential visit to Wenning-


ton Hall School near Lancaster. The vis it strengthened e.xisting


links between Ribblesdale High School Technology College and Wen- nington Hall, which has fantastic facilities to stretch pupils both men­ tally and physically. The eight lucky pupils chosen for


the trip were Hannah Pym, Lorraine Wilson, James Willan, Matthew Winckley, Joanne Tattersall, Emma Lawson, Katie Braund and Suzanne Bauer. On arrival they were given a tour


of the 18th Century building by the headteacher, along with a talk on health and safety for the duration of th e ir stay. They then enjoyed a superb lunch before being split into two teams and getting changed for their f irs t challenge - an assault course with a twist. This involved having to negotiate


numerous obstacles \vith a large bar­ rel, which was filled with water. At no point could the b arrel touch the ground, but teams could use rope and wood to help them. This involved a combination of thinking skills and teamwork, plus total co-operation by all group members. Both groups successfully complet­


ed the course, completely shattered, with the vanning team getting round in 28 minutes. The second challenge involved lots


of skill and precision as pupils had to safely learn how to drive motorised go-karts and negotiate a course

led by teachers Miss Robinson and Mrs Street, who performed “Is this the way to Amarillo” in fancy dress! This was an introduction to the third challenge as teams had to learn the words, choreograph a routine and make two outfits from bin bags and newspapers for a filmed performance. Hannah was a star on the dancing front whilst James looked bewildered in his orange wig and feather duster!


A taste of Africa


DRUMMING workshops and singing and dancing sessions were just some of the many activities enjoyed by pupils at a Clitheroe school. Youngsters at Pendle Primary School tried their hands at creative arts and gained an insight into the African culture - thanks to African artist Miss Miso’shi. The two-day event was organised by art co-ordinator, Mr Tim Nixon, and creative arts co-ordinator, Mrs Liz Waddington.The workshops enabled children to learn about African printing, hit the high note with their singing and take centre stage with their drumming.

Day two saw an introduction to


paintballing, when one team learned how to get kitted out and use a paint­ ball marker, while the other team experienced a flight simulator and then later swopped over. Once the two teams were fully kit­


ted out in the protective clothing and combat gear, the morning was spent in the woocls learning camp craft skills including cooking lunch using Army rations and Army stoves. Lamb stew and beef with potatoes and vegetables went down quite well. Once energy had been restored it


was time for the paintball battle in the woods. One team defended a fort while the other had to capture their flag by storming the castle. After an


■e,.


apprehensive start full-scale war took place with both teams braving paint- balls for their respective teams. After an intensive two days it was


finally time to head back to Ribbles­ dale, but not before an awards cere­ mony. After being graded on all the activities the winning team were Suzanne Bauer, Joanne Tattersall, James ”Willan and Katie Braund. Certificates were also given to Han­ nah Pym, Suzanne Bauer and Matthew Winckley for their out­ standing contributions throughout. Back at school all pupils received


certificates and individual prizes for their efforts as well as a copy of the DVD and photos that were taken. All pupils came away with new skills.
