The Big Walk

Every year, our students raise money to host the Friendship Holiday with Oakfield School in Nottingham, which hasn’t happened for the past two years due to Covid. Undeterred by the restrictions, they still went ahead and complete the Big Walk last year to raise money for Oakfield to have a special day trip at the end of term. They walked for 24 hours with no sleep to cover the 72km from Whitby back to Ampleforth, raising more than £4,500 for the school – well done to everyone involved!
