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!

Everyone tried really hard and climbed their hearts out the whole time we were there!
Some natural talents in this group - Climbing Club is on every Thursday 6.30 - 8.30pm
Well done to all of you, especially Lewis and Callum who conquered their fear of heights!!!
