Pupils were given the chance to be part of the Olympic Legacy and make a splash by going white water rafting.

Nower Hill High School pupils got the chance to enjoy the sport as part of annual schools festival which was held at Lee Valley White Water Centre earlier this week.

The centre was the scene of a gold medal victory for Great Britain at the London 2012 Olympics and schools from across London, Hertfordshire and Essex took part in the festival which organiser hopes will inspire more young people to take up water sports.
