Friends of Chappel School and The Swan Inn present the 2026 Chappel Duck Race!
Come and cheer on your favourite as 1000 (plastic) ducks race down the River Colne under the iconic Chappel Viaduct.
Enjoy an afternoon of fun watching from the pub garden and the adjacent play park as the ducks compete in four races. Be in with a chance of victory by sponsoring a duck for just £2.50 - prizes for the top three ducks in every race.
With a hog roast, bar, bouncy castle and fun and games to get involved with, join us for what promises to be a quacking afternoon!
