Some people nearly ran twice round the loch, everyone managed at least one lap. We had a nice hot chocolate in the cafe afterwards to warm us up again, as it was a little chilly!
In the afternoon we performed the dances and songs that we are filming for our Sport Relief video. We’ll show it to classes on Friday at our Sport Relief event and get them to vote for their favourite! Acts include ‘Connor Buble’, ‘Driver Craig and the Jai Who?
