TWO friends from St Mellion C of E Primary School had an adventure as they walked an ancient pathway across Cornwall and camped out under the stars.

Year 4 pupils Lorelei and Alicia hiked along The Saint’s Way from Padstow to Fowey, on a route taking in woodlands, moorland and villages.

A spokesperson for the school said: “We are incredibly proud of these young adventurers who walked just over 14 miles in two days.

“After conquering this physical feat, they also had a well-deserved treat of fish and chips for tea, which they enjoyed immensely. Well done to these brave students for pushing themselves and achieving their goals.”
