Year 7 Challenge Themselves at Cuckmere Haven

Written by Grace Hazan Year 7

Our time at the Birling gap and Cuckmere Haven!

Last Friday we went to Birling gap and Cuckmere Haven. First we were going to go kayaking and paddle boarding on the river cuckmere. 

We went on the bus and we were laughing and having fun as we went. We were all super excited when we got there. We got into our wetsuits and the girls got onto kayaks while the boys went paddle boarding. About an hour in we swapped over. We all fell in a lot and it was so much fun. We got out and dried off; got changed and hopped on the bus. 

We got to Birling gap and it was VERY windy! We then went down to the cafe and got ourselves a nice drink and snack. We went down to the beach and had our delicious lunch. We played on the beach for a bit and then looked at a really cool part of the cliff where you could see where chalk had fallen and piled up to the bottom. There were also interesting layers of flint in the cliff.

After a while of exploring and note taking we went back on the bus to go back to school.

This was a really fun school trip
