And that, was our last outdoor ed’ session of the school year! A strong breeze and sunny spells made great conditions for Year 6 to round things off with.

A great ‘follow my leader’ drill, followed by capsize practice (and a final jetty jump, of course). ⛵️ 💨

House cricket yesterday saw a sublime partnership from Ellie and Thomas. Foxes hit a 4 off the last ball to claim victory in the 3rd/4th place play off game. Well done to the mighty foxes 🦊🏏.

Time for a cool off! For many in Year 6, the Outdoor Ed’ highlight of the year is our ghyll scramble experience in the river Caldew. Today did not disappoint - rock jumps, slides and scrambles. Great fun!

Huge congratulations to badgers 🦡 who claimed glory at this year’s Hunter Hall sports day. The drought is over - well for sports day success anyway. 2013 was their last win! Well done Iona and Anna on your joint U11 Victrix Ludorum win 💥💥

Thanks to @mowden_hall for hosting a fabulous afternoon of cricket. The U11 Super Sixes proved a big hit with our cricketers. Lots to celebrate and plenty of new learning 👌

Thanks to Barnard Castle for hosting our U11 boys yesterday. A great cricket game and lovely to catch up with past Hunter Hall pupil - Hugo. Top caught and bowled George and fine boundaries for Ollie, Hamish and Hubi 🏏💪🏻
