Our Riverwalk is consistently one of the favourite activities with our younger students.
Kitted out in wetsuits, buoyancy aids and helmets, students make their way up through the river completing a number of games along the way, finishing with the highlight at the plunge pool.

Combined with Orienteering and Rockclimbing this makes T4 the ideal day out for your National School Tour
