Michaelmas Land Activity Day

A wonderful day was spent in glorious sunshine by pupils and staff working on various land projects and Michaelmas preparations.
We also celebrated Rikke’s birthday (our Head of Education) with some delicious homemade cakes that she made for us! (It is a Danish custom that was very much appreciated by one and all!)
