Editor's Note: We apologise for the sideways nature of some of the videos but our intrepid videographer was suspended upside down in the middle of the forest and lost her sense of direction!

The UIV went to Brenscombe High Ropes Course where a few challenges were made and achieved.  I will never forget seeing Lucy C and Clare, Lucy W and Fernanda and Gilly and Anna, in pairs, at the top of that 15 metre pole, on a platform measuring about half a metre square, jumping off to grab a trapeze about 2 metres from the platform!  The girls were amazing and I am sure they will all feel very pleased with themselves!  I was very proud.    Fernanda and Lucy C were phenomenal on the Rings – both managing about 5 rings each, about 15 metres high in the air!  Olly and Luc, who came with Mr Raffray and me to the course, were impressive in the heights they reached.  Well done to everyone who achieved over and above what they had expected!
