Salesian College Lake District Trip 2011

Salesian College Lake District Trip 2011

 This year’s Lake District trip to Borrowdale on Derwentwater was a great success enjoying good weather. The Year 7 boys all had a fantastic time taking part in a wide range of activities including: abseiling, rock climbing, gorge scrambling, raft building, kayaking, orienteering, dragon boating and climbing Cat Bells. We had numerous comments from members of the public in the Lake District commending our boys on their excellent behaviour and though out the week they were a pleasure to be with.

 

It was very hard to pick out particular boys to receive the prizes this year as they were all excellent. The worthy winners however were:

 

Legend of the Lakes                            Derwentwater Hostel         Jack Parker
