Year 7 Geography Trip 2007 - The Hepste River Valley and Sgwd yr Eira, Brecon Beacons, Wales

On June 12th 2007, the Year 7 pupils and 8 staff members visited the Hepste River Valley and Sgwd yr Eira waterfall. In the morning we crossed the Brecon Beacons from Penderyn following the Hepste River Valley, stopping along the way to enjoy the views. In the afternoon pupils were divided into small groups and led down to the Sgwd yr Eira waterfall and behind the curtain. It was a fantastic day for all involved and many thanks go to all the staff that joined us on the trip.
