Today was our final day at Derwent Hill and the staff here at Portland could not be prouder of this group of students. They have represented Portland so well and the leaders at Derwent Hill were singing their praises. After breakfast, the students cleaned their rooms and brought down their luggage before heading off to Whinlatter Forest to enjoy the views and the adventure course 😊 We popped back to Derwent Hill for our lunch before saying our goodbyes and coming back to Portland. This has been one residential to remember and we hope you have all enjoyed the photos we have posted. We have already booked our next trip to Derwent Hill for the secondary department and more details will follow in the Autumn term of 2022/2023. A massive THANK YOU again to the amazing staff at Derwent Hill, this could not be possible without you. See you next year 🙂
Yesterday the students on the residential to Derwent Hill did a group walk up to the top of Hallin Fell which is 388m high. The students all worked together and showed excellent team work and perseverance. After lunch, the students went on to experience some rock climbing 🧗♀️ We were so impressed with how well they all did and how the encouraged each other to give it a go. On the way back to Derwent Hill, we stopped off for some delicious ice cream 🍦 and a visit to the local shop for some souvenirs.
