On Monday Years 7 and 8 took part in their first outdoor learning experience of the year – the Senior School House Cross-Country route.   The pupils had a great time with their peers enjoying the countryside, views and company on the 7km route. Fortunately, it had stopped raining in time for them to begin, but several pupils managed to find puddles to wade through for additional adventure.

A huge well done to the pupils and staff for completing this for the first time in the Prep School, and to the group who took a detour and ended up walking just over 10km that afternoon!
