The annual year 6 Bike Ride was great as usual with a record breaking ride this year. 12 children cycled from the school to Hoddesdon where they swam at the lido there and then, amazingly, they cycled all the way back. Despite the wet summer so far it was a great day and everyone worked as a team and supported each other when they got tired and sore - and the students were very well behaved too!
