Our leavers take the new minibus on its first adventure

Our brand-new minibus went on its first adventure when it took the learners who will be leaving us this year on their residential trip.

Staff and students excitedly piled into the new minibus and headed off to Center Parcs on what is for many the highlight of the summer term.

We were absolutely thrilled that Alan Bird of Century Financial Planning was able to come and help wave off the intrepid explorers. The company had helped fund the minibus alongside Variety Golf and Friends of Dysart School.

Principal Leigh, told the students to go and have fun, saying, “This new minibus is enabling us to support and change the lives for our students. It is helping to give our students the best quality of life possible and enable them to get out on an adventure and learn valuable skills to take them into adulthood.”

Alan Bird, who also found time to tour the school, said, “Having seen the amazing work that goes on here at Dysart, I can understand what a positive impact donations such as the minibus can have on the learners. We are delighted to have been able to support the school in this way.”

Although it may be one of the last adventures for the learners who are leaving Dysart this summer, we know the minibus will help facilitate plenty more opportunities.
