IT was a familiar but fun return to a North Wales activity centre for a Chester teacher who has been organising her school's annual trip for nearly 25 years.

A total of 115 Year 7 pupils The Catholic High School joined staff members and head of Year 7 Anne Bilko, organiser of the trip, to the Conway Centre in Anglesey.

Mrs Bilko has been organising this trip for nearly 25 years and during that time has taken over 3,500 students on the same trip each November.

This trip included students whose parents also attended when they were students and members of staff who also attended when they too were students at The Catholic High.

Students enjoyed four fun-filled days taking part in canoeing, rope climbing and team building exercises.

The week ended with the students having a wonderful evening on Thursday, when they attended a grand ball and a disco.
