Hello and thank you for taking the time to visit our school website. Here we hope you can find a range of information to help you gain an understanding of our school and the ethos we promote.
Pleasant Street is a happy and diverse school in Liverpool City Centre, with a dedicated and hard-working team focused on providing a high-class education for pupils. Learning together, we respect each other’s values and traditions.
Tonight we finished off our day with a camp fire. Mr Curry played some songs on the guitar and we sang some of our favourites from music lessons and choir club. Before we went back to the accommodation, we talked about things that we are grateful for, shared our favourite part of the trip and discussed what we are most proud of whilst we have been here.

Group 3 tried some paddle boarding this afternoon. The weather conditions meant that some children managed to stand up on their boards!
Group 2 enjoyed the low ropes and the zip wire this afternoon, some of them facing their fears to climb obstacles that were pretty high up!
Group 1 enjoyed a full day activity today, Gorge Scrambling. They explored rugged rocky ravines and their flowing streams and icy pools. They worked brilliantly together to get through the challenges, encouraging each other every step of the way!
Group 3 enjoyed a morning climbing a Via Feratta (Iron Path). They showed bravery and resilience as they faced their fears and they worked brilliantly together as a team.
Group Two enjoyed a morning on the water, paddle boarding. The headed down to the Menai Strait in their wet suits and jumped into the very chilly water. After getting to grips with the basics of turning, spinning and trying to travel in a straight line, they walked up the shore and travelled back to the beach. It was great to see some brilliant teamwork on display, helping each other to get into the safety equipment and encouraging each other on the boards.
This morning, some of us enjoyed a brisk walk around the beautiful grounds of the National Trust property next to our adventure centre. We enjoyed taking in our surroundings as we walked along the Menai Strait. We then all enjoyed a delicious breakfast. Today groups are enjoying gorge scrambling, paddle boarding, via ferreta, low ropes and the zip wire. We will post some more updates this evening.
Class 6 are having a brilliant time on their residential. Today the groups have enjoyed time on the zip wire, low ropes, paddle boarding and completing Via Ferrata. We then headed out for our last activity of the day – The Night Line which was a real test of teamwork skills! Our wifi signal isn’t great so we will update as and when we can. The children are having a great time, even in the wind and the rain!

We were visited by Everton FC football players, Lewis Dobbin and Joao Virginia who took the time out of their busy training schedule to visit school to play a competitive game of bench ball with some pupils. After the session, they sat down to discuss the importance of exercise and keeping fit and healthy and the impact that sport can have on our mental health and wellbeing.
Some of our reading buddies were invited to John Moores University library to talk about reading and books with some Childhood Studies University students. They discussed some of the books in the library, why they selected them and their thoughts on the content and illustrations.
We had a very special visitor in school on party day, every class had the opportunity to visit the grotto and they left with some gifts.
