On Tuesday 22^nd February, Roebuck were visited by James Ketchell. James is an international explorer and adventurer, who has cycled around the world, climbed Mount Everest and even sailed on the Atlantic ocean for over 100 days!  

James started the day with an assembly where he shared great wisdom. He told us to never give up and that things are not as hard as they seem.  

Year 6 were even luckier as we got to have a private workshop with him. We tried on the equipment and even tried some of the food he had to eat while on his expeditions. We tried pasta bolognaise, most of us really liked it, although it was really crunchy! We had the best day and we really enjoyed listening to James about his fantastic message on growth mindset and resilience. At Roebuck we are determined and resilient.
