FOR nearly 50 years, generations of school children from Somerset, Devon and further afield have been coming for residential stays at the Pinkery Centre for Outdoor Learning, high on Exmoor.
To mark the occasion Exmoor National Park Authority – who welcome around 2,000 children a year to the Centre – are asking people to share old photos and memories from their stay to form part of an exhibition later in the year.
John Fletcher, deputy head of Heathfield Community School, in Taunton, have been sending their Year 7 students for residentials at the Pinkery Centre for 40 years. He said: “Our students say time again that the most important and memorable experience they had of school was Pinkery."
Send in your photos and memories of Pinkery to pinkery@exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk.
