Make content about: Ten pupils crewed an ocean yacht
Ten pupils in Wimborne stepped out of their comfort zones to crew an ocean yacht and discovered strengths they never knew they had.
This story
A group of ten pupils from a middle school in Wimborne, many facing extra challenges at home or school, embarked on an offshore sailing voyage. They took on every task at sea, from hoisting sails and navigating night passages to climbing the mast and cooking for fifteen. Now back on dry land, they are carrying that new confidence forward as they prepare for upper school.
