Ilam Hall Trip

On the 5th of October twelve students from years 8 up to 12 took part in a residential trip to the Derbyshire Peak District with Miss Forth and Mr Keane. Friday evening saw some good old fashioned fun as we walked a section of the Tissington trail that took us through what used to be a railway tunnel, exploring Ashbourne and finally discovering the chip shop!

Once at Ilam Hall we launched ten Chinese lanterns into a pitch black sky which was very atmospheric.

Saturday was spent walking along the Dove Valley along the river over the famous stepping stones and exploring caves.

At the half way point we fed some hungry ducks.

On the way back we stopped off at a well known and popular fast food restaurant for lunch.
