And we're off to the start of the new academic year, new members to our Outdoor Education and Performance Climbing teams and it seems that we've established a tradition: The first Outdoor Ed. session of the year involves a loch side run and a leap in to the loch. It may sound unappealing, but apparently it's not: we come back to this activity throughout the year by popular request. What makes me happy is to see pupils who would normally not enjoy running, telling me they will run for a set time, sticking to that, elated by the post-exercise endorphins and what they have achieved, leaping into the loch together.
