Peggy loves her rock climbing but has never actually climbed real outdoor rocks before so we thought we needed to correct that.

Peggy had an absolutely brilliant time and made some new friends too. We all went as a family to watch and enjoyed the gorgeous weather and views. We’d be regulars if these Friday climbing sessions didn’t clash with Forest School; we just can’t be in two places at once!
