Primary Schools - Curriculum Enrichment - Newcastle upon Tyne

Cheviot Primary School staff contacted us to see if we could do 2 days  'Survival' training with their Y5 and Y6 classes. They were about to begin a topic looking at how you might survive following a natural disaster. We were delighted to help!


Two groups of 30 students arrived at The Rising Sun Country Park, well wrapped up and in an array of colourful wellies. The  were so excited!

The day covered sourcing wood, lighting fires, using saws and axes, making fire sticks with knives, preparing Game, sourcing and filtering water, making shelters, mapping our area.....pheew!

We had action packed days. The classes were fantastic. The staff from the school were incredibly supportive and helpful.

To start the 'Survival' topic using a day in the woods was a great idea. It brought learning to life, and we SURVIVED! I am sure we will see Cheviot Primary School again next year.
