Hear our Y12 students discussing their 45-mile hike across Dartmoor

#019 - Welcome back to the Reading Blues Podcast, the place to find out more about the school and to connect with staff, pupils and parents at a deeper level. Each week we’ll be interviewing people within the school community, asking them questions and spending time understanding more about them and more about the school.

In this episode we’re outdoors into some pretty harsh conditions as we find out about something called the Ten Tors event, a 45 mile hike across Dartmoor. Director of Adventure Education, Stephen Lamacraft is joined by Year 12 students Nina, Sergio, Chris, Sophie and also Eloise who’s dialling in from home. Together they explain what the Ten Tors event is, how you prepare for something like this, what it’s actually like to endure this and what it feels like to cross the finish line. But we also hear about teamwork, something that’s at the heart of Reading Blue Coat School.

So let’s get boots out, laced up and step outdoors for this episode right now.
