Hale School, Wembley Downs

Come and enjoy a sprint at the Hale School campus in Wembley Downs, with beautiful green lawns, neat gardens and intricate buildings. Be prepared for interesting route choices, intense navigation around the buildings and fast legs in the open. Afterwards, there are plenty of options – visit a local coffee shop, picnic at Bold Park or enjoy a swim and lunch at the beach.
