Oundle School’s “Have a Go Day” ( HAGD) has been running for twenty seven years and has established itself as a favourite date in the special needs club and schools calendars.

Despite the weather, on 30 April 100 visitors to the School, hosted by over 150 pupils took part in various activities including swimming, badminton, basketball, archery, football, rounders, karaoke, face painting and art.

HAGD is a wonderful opportunity for Oundle pupils to express their philanthropic tendencies and for visitors it is a really encouraging environment in which to try their hand at new sports and activities in a safe and familiar environment.

Nick Turnbull, Head of Community Action at Oundle School said:-

“It is lovely to see the faces of our guests light up at the prospect of sampling activities which many people take for granted. Their presence is like a breath of fresh air and our pupils are privileged to host them”

Some visitors make a bee-line for their favourite activity as soon as they arrive; the archery is always extremely popular and well supported. Others like to try their hand at karaoke, art or swimming.

Any clubs wishing to be notified of future events should contact Oundle School Community Action department on 01832 277267 or email ca@oundleschool.org.uk for further details.
