MORE than 100 primary school leavers have been enjoying exciting activities at Barnard Castle’s TCR Hub over the past two weeks.
Children from seven dale primary schools were invited to the venue for a special year six leavers’ celebration on different days. Activities included constructing plastic crate towers using the high ropes, canoeing and bush-craft. Sarah Gent, of the Hub, said: “On realising another year of pupils were risking missing out on their residentials due to Covid, TCR decided to plan something special for the year sixes to mark their graduation from primary school at the Hub to help plug this gap.”
Jonny Elliot, who helped children on the high ropes, added: “The move from primary up to secondary is a big significant step in a young person’s life and we felt it’s really important to mark it in some way.
“We are really pleased to be working with seven schools in July for a day of active fun just for them.
“We have provided a tailored day of outdoor activities for groups of ten pupils who rotated around the activities. Thank you to all the schools who have brought pupils to TCR Hub and supported this initiative.”
There is an action-packed summer holiday programme at TCR Hub including Summer Club, Outdoor Activity Club and family sessions that will help summer go with a smile.
