From Monday 10th to Friday 14th April, 31 students and 3 members of staff flew to Edinburgh to enjoy our first Sports Tour since the pandemic to a venue that we had not run a trip to before. We were there to play Netball and Football against both clubs and another school – South Queensferry High School, who had opened especially to welcome us during their Easter holidays! The trip was not all about sport however as we also took part in organised visits to Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh Zoo, Edinburgh Castle and even a Harry Potter walking tour on the last morning.
The sport itself was a great test for our students with each netball team winning 1 and losing 1 of their games and the boys’ football team winning 2.
Overall it was an excellent experience and one that we will definitely do again. Well done to all the students involved for a fantastic week.
