After the students get off the tram, they can see an iron gate then go through and go straight about 315m on the Keighton Hill.

At that time students can see the shimmering lake and lots of goose on the lawn. After that, students need turn left to the Cut Through Lane and they sometimes can see that the squirrels🐿are running under the pine trees🌲
