St Augustine's Priory Girls School Hill Walking Weekend

One of the teachers from St Augustine's - Rhegis


Immediatly after running the bushcraft course for Fishburn Primary.  Thrills and Skills for Life took a group to the Peak District.  Many of the girls were new to walking so a leisurely and historical walk was conducted.  It took in areas Robin Hood was said to have operated.  The girls viewed little Johns grave (one of Robin Hood's merry men) and crossed the path of rivers where Robin Hood is said to have drunk water.

The girls stayed in a hostel organised by us and enjoyed Claire our chefs cooking and a film night in the evening.  The next day the girls viewed the Dam that was practiced on by 617 squadron (The Dam Busters) and took time to hike up a mountain to view the remains and memorial of an American B29 bomber which crashed.
