Where do your year 6s go for a residential trip?

[FiveHoursSleep]

Ours go to the IOW for a week, our school is in NW London so it's around 100 miles.
I thought this was quite cool as it's almost overseas but I know a few people who think it's too far away and for too long.
How far away do your year 6s do, and for how long?

Our yr 5's do the IOW (we're Brighton), and have done for years

Mon - Fri

France for 7 nights.

Derbyshire, which is 3-3.5 hours travel each way. They leave Monday 9am & arrive back Friday 4pm.

We're in S. Yorks and ours go to a holiday house in Filey, about 2hrs away.

Dartmoor, 30 miles away for 5 days.

Wonders if she knows ragged irl, as ours is the same!

Ours go to the Lake District, only about 1.5 hrs away.
They have a fantastic time.

Our Yr6 go to the IOW too, Mon-fri.

Torrington, Devon. About 2 hours away (except motorway delays meant it took 4 hours to get home ) Monday to Friday.

Mon - Fri
Wales
5.5 hours away but we take all day to get there with plenty of stopping places.

I've taken our juniors (y4-6) to the IOW (Kingswood) and we are 350 miles away a real adventure for them

Ours do the Lakes and its about 3 hours drive from here and they do Mon -Fri.
Some parents fret about residentials no matter how near or far they are.
Ours school does residentials from year 2 upwards so the kids take it all in their stride.

The go to Pembrokeshire. We are in Eastern England.

And they leave Monday morning and return Friday evening.

Paris (long weekend) and Cyprus (heavily subsidised by the Cypriot Church - it's a Greek Orthodox School) The Cyprus trip is 5 days but is cheaper than the Paris one.

DS1 did the Cypriot trip in Yr6 and loved it. DS2 would have loved it but for various reasons couldn't go

East Barnby near Whitby (about 2 hours away from home)

We are in Surrey, and ours do IOW in Year 5 for 3 days, then France in Year 6 for 5 days.

Actually just checked distances and it's more like 4.5 hours, Hampshire to the Peak District.

About an hour away (enabling the odd parent to come and 'rescue' their homesick child )

Our Yr5's go to a YH in the Peak District
DS has just come back from a PGL adventure week - he is in year 6.

Dartmoor, about 3 hours away Mon-Fri.

Ours fly for 5 days from Singapore to Borneo. They spend one night in an Iban longhouse and the others in a hotel.

IOW from Derbyshire for year 5 and year 6, it's about 6 hours.
