Year 8 Leavers Expedition to Cornwall

Writes Dominic Todd, Director of Sport

Our Year 8 boys enjoyed a memorable Leavers’ Expedition to Cornwall, marking the end of their journey after 10 years with the school.

The adventure began in Newquay, where the boys took to the waves with a bodyboarding session on the famous Fistral Beach. They then travelled to Swanpool in Falmouth to experience a range of exciting water sports, including stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking and coasteering.

On Sunday, the group headed to Mawgan Porth Beach for a full day at surf school. Under expert instruction, the boys spent the day in the sea developing their surfing skills and making the most of the fantastic conditions. On Monday, they returned to Fistral Beach for one final bodyboarding session before heading home.

The expedition was a fitting finale for a year group that has been part of the school community for a decade. The boys had a fantastic time, creating lasting memories together, and even found time to celebrate England’s World Cup victory during the trip.
