Czech Republic
Geography and Biology Field Trip

Travel to Policka
Ten lower sixth biology and geography students and four staff left LWC on the last day of the summer term at 9.00am in
heavy rain (oh shucks). We left a little late as Anna’s mum was concerned that she did not know where Anna was going!!

Day 1 - a talk from the mayor of Svatka An exciting football match took place at 4pm against the Czech Republic with England up against stiff competition • Day 2 Brewery then river work • Day 3 Soils and vegetation church tower • Day 4 We travelled south to Mikulov via the Mendel Museum • Day 5 The walk was steep and we were not in the mood from the night before! Soil testing wasn’t as bad as expected-just very, very hot! • Day 6 Another hot day on the limestone looking at the soil and vegetation on the plateau and in the bluebell wood • Day 7 Exciting last day. Our last day was spent in Brno where we saw the policechasing a car which crashed into another as it tried to negotiate a corner. Our plane was on time and we landed at Stansted at 6.00 pm

 

First Form French Trip to Normandy

'Our trip to France was one of the best, funniest trips I’ve ever been on. We did things from making croissants in a French bakery to singing songs about ants around a campfire ! We didn’t do anything that wasn’t fun. A big thumbs up and thank you to all the teachers who came with us.
We had a great time!' Emily Barham

 

 

Florence Visit - Art Trip

'The hotel wasn't quite up to E.M.Forster's "Room with a View" standards but we had a hotel suite all to ourselves, up just a few flights of stairs. Nat and Chaz:"Just how many students can you fit in a lift?"'
