Mountain Biking - Grizedale Forest - Year 10 Public Services

A day of Mountain Biking with an emphasis on Health and Safety, Leadership / Team work and Conservation.  What better activity to put all of the above into perspective!

All nine lads picked up basic tecniques quickly and went on to ride the entire North face trail in great style!

Well done guys for your safe and mature attitude but also your willingness to push yourselves to the limit!

Photos and videos to follow tomorrow!

Ghyll Scrambling - Stickle Ghyll - Year 7 - Day 1 - 10th Jan 2012

First day of activity for our new year seven group, so we headed for Stickle Ghyll.  Water levels were perfect and despite being mid Jan it was very mild.

Not quite mild enough for swimming though!  Try telling that to 13 super keen students!

Well done guys - see you on Thursday for Sailing or Kayaking!
