Group 4 with Ms McQuillin

Mountain day today! We tackled Cat Bells and what an excellent day we’ve had. We got off the minibus near some old mines and spent some time looking for special stones and learning about the different local stones you can find near the mountain. We then scaled some challenging terrain but succeeded and really enjoyed the stunning views from the summit. We participated in some Philosophy for Children at the top also, debating some interesting topics. We then came back down the mountain and stopped for ice cream. Delicious. We ended the day brilliantly by journeying back to Derwent Hill on the ferry.
