School Journeys

BP takes year five and six to both Arran in Scotland and Plas Menai in Wales. Here this short photo montage shows our pupils at the National Watersports Centre of Wales, Plas Menai. They take part in a whole range of watersport activities under expert tuition. Its great fun in a safe environment.

Suddenly pupils who perhaps do not shine in traditional sports discover capabilities they did not realise they ever had. Watching eight pupils sailing a 30 ft keel boat is a joy to observe, totally confident in their abilities and un-afraid to try something different. This is what BP school journeys are about.

Arran is our other school journey location. The setting described as Scotland in minature allows our children to walk and explore coastal scenery, isolated valleys, tarns and much more in complete safety, but also offering a challenge to our city children.
