Join us for THE EXMOOR, one of the longest school cross-country runs in the country...
The Exmoor run takes place on Tuesday 31st March and registration is now OPEN!
We invite all OWBs and Parents (current and former) to join in this legendary school event. Entry fees support our Foundation bursary programme, for which we are extremely grateful.
The Kinsford Long (formerly The Long) consists of a walk of eight miles to the start and a run of eleven miles back to the school.
The Heasley Challenge (formerly The Short) is a walk of six miles to Heasley Mill and a run of seven miles.
The entry fee is £35 (to include refreshments in the JESC, a packed lunch and refreshments on completion). Current HE Students £25.
This year, we are also raising funds for the Michael Downward Hardship Fund, which supports families facing financial uncertainty and hardship, ensuring students can remain in school during crucial moments of their education. If you would like to contribute to this important cause, please select the option during registration.
