This time we have changed it slightly with each Year Team setting their own challenges for their specific year groups.

Yr 8 - Climb a landmark

Haydon@Home Challenge – Climb a landmark by Mrs Phull – Due 21/01/21 at 3pm

Is there a landmark that you’ve always wanted to visit… well now you can… in a way. It has been inspiring to see numerous people challenging themselves in their own homes to walk a certain distance like Captain Tom Moore or in some cases climb a certain height.

We want you to pick a landmark and climb the equivalent height of it up your own stairs in a 1 week.

The deadline for entries is Thursday 21st January at 3pm

All of the information that you need to be able to complete the challenge can be found by clicking this link.

Haydon@Home Challenge – Climb a Landmark:

The winner will all receive a certificate upon their return to school.

I have selected one winner this week and that is Aryan Vaja in 8GKP – Aryan completed all workings out and climbed 41 flights of his staircase a day to climb the equivalent height of Mount Tianmen (1,519 m) which is affectionately known as The Stairway to Heaven. I think I must take this opportunity to apologise to Aryan’s parents as I am sure that all carpet on their stairs will now need to be replaced.

Well done Aryan!
