Congratulation to Owain T., Kieran C. and Jamie McE. who were named joint U.K. champions in the Geographical Association’s WorldWise Challenge weekend.

The event, held at Malham Tarn in the Yorkshire Dales, saw teams from all four nations in the U.K. complete a series of Geographical tasks around the local area. Each team was then challenged to present on a topic to a panel of judges including the President of the Geographical Association.  The judges commended the boys on not only the excellent Geography included in their presentation but their application, attitude and encouragement of others over the weekend.

After battling through the Scottish qualifiers in 2015 this was a fantastic achievement for the boys. In the end the trophy was shared with Wallace High School Lisburn which was fitting given the close friendships developed between the two teams over the weekend.
