Miss Claire Douglas of the English Department has just returned with a group of fourth year pupils from this year’s first outing to the Outward Bound Outdoor Centre at Loch Eil. Miss Douglas was delighted to report how well each and every pupils had done as they faced their own personal and team challenges, including in the icy waters of the loch during the raft-building exercise. The group tackled a mountain trek and a series of climbing challenges with every ‘clan’ members successfully completing the tasks thanks to the support of all their clan-mates.

The Clyde Valley Outward Bound Group gathers outside the Loch Eil Centre during their recent week-long stay.
