Devizes to Westminster Canoe Race 2025

Congratulations to a selection of our Lower Sixth pupils who have completed the Devizes to Westminster Canoe Marathon (or DW), commonly recognised as one of the toughest endurance races in the world.

The course runs from Devizes in Wiltshire along the Kennet & Avon Canal to Reading, where it continues along the River Thames to the finish line at Putney, opposite Craven Cottage – a distance of approximately 118 miles. Competitors had to navigate 77 portages and camped overnight along the route.

A massive achievement creating lifelong memories. Well done!
