First Eco Challenge Residential

29th Apr, 2008 to 29th Jun, 2008

St Edmund Arrowsmith School from Knowsley are the first school to take part in the Eco Challenge residential. On their recent Eco Challenge residential at Blencathra in the Lake District students were encouraged to explore their environmental impact and had the adventure challenge of climbing Cat Bells mountain. Shelter building and survival skills were developed in Winlatter Forest. All in all a great success with students and staff alike thoroughly enjoying the weekend.

The teacher leading the group said

'A very positive experience both as a leader and from the students. We feel very lucky to have had the experience and share in Eco Challenge'.
