A great day for all the Lyndhurst pupils who took part in the ISA cross-country! Every participant did themselves proud and there were some great results all round!

We had a great time today talking with MP Michael Gove. First, Mr Gove introduced himself and told us about the workings of his job – it was interesting to hear about his role in Parliament. He then asked us if we had any questions to ask him; we had prepared many great (and tricky!)…
