Adventurer and endurance athlete Louis Supple, whose brother Archie left WHS in 2010, inspired the children with a fascinating Ignite talk on competing in the Marathon des Sables, Everest Trail Race, Jungle Ultra and The Ice Ultra. He encouraged the children to never give up, pursue every opportunity in life, to be their best self and to take on a challenge even if your friends are not taking part.

A sea of hands led to a 25 minute Q&A session, with the children fascinated by the various ultra-marathon environments, the best kit to wear and whether Louis had been bitten by a scorpion or caiman!
