Third Form Field Week

Abernethy

On the 15th of June, one hundred and four Third Form students and fifteen members of staff travelled up to Abernethy Outdoor Centre in Nethybridge for the Third Form Field Week. The trip was a huge success, with students taking part in a variety of activities from rock-climbing, kayaking, Duke of Edinburgh expedition and of course, the Biology, Geography and Art field work.

In the evening, students also took part in exciting teambuilding exercises involving ropes courses and logic puzzles deep in the Abernethy forest. The group learned a lot from the trip and bonded as a year group, something that will stand them in great stead for the remainder of their time at Fettes.

Many thanks have to go to all the staff running the trip whose patience and boundless enthusiasm make this exhausting week such a success. The students were fantastic and we were once again amazed by their energy, motivation and togetherness. Everyone should be very proud of their efforts. A massive thank you also has to be made to Mr McCowan Hill and Mr Ward for organising the trip this year.
