HSD makes (virtual!) journey to Tokyo to support Eilish!

To show their backing for former pupil Eilish as she competes in her 3rd Games, towards the end of the summer term, staff, pupils and their families began taking part in the Travel to Tokyo Challenge.

Organised by Team GB and Paralympics GB, the event saw participants log physical activity, which was then converted into a distance, moving participants along a (virtual!) journey to the host city.

By the time the Games got underway and the challenge came to an end, Team HSD had covered an amazing 39,274km – enough to make the 9,180km journey from Dundee to Tokyo more than 4 times! Well done to everyone who took part!

Good luck Eilish in the 10,000m final on Saturday – we can’t be there to support you in person (in spite of our virtual effort!) but we’ll be right behind you in spirit!

Go Eilish!
