Ten Tors with Sherborne Girls

After a two year hiatus, hopes are high that the 60th Ten Tors event will take place in May 2022. The inclusion of Sherborne Girls in the Combined Cadet Force has enabled Ten Tors training to become a joint schools' activity. The first training day, on November 7, required 38 boys and girls from the Fourth Form to complete a 13-mile walk from Sherborne School to Cadbury Castle in unseasonably pleasant weather.  

With three teams entered in the Fourth Form and the possibility of a mixed Lower Sixth team - 2022 is full of exciting potential for outdoor education at Sherborne. Winter training starts in February 2022 with a visit to Dartmoor and becomes progressively challenging with a series of overnight wild camps.
