Year 11 and 12 sport and public services students spent a morning session being put through their paces with two Royal Marines. An energetic morning, completing team building and leadership challenges, with various ‘forfeits’ for the losing teams. The pupils benefited hugely from this experience and our receptionists were certainly impressed when the Marines arrived in the morning!
