Tragic Leah Harrison loved football and had dreams of one day playing for the Lionesses national squad.
But she was swept to her death on Wednesday during a school trip to celebrate the end of Sats exams.
The landslip happened shortly after Leah and her classmates had enjoyed lunch at Carlton Adventures, a council-run, outdoor activity centre on the Cleveland Way, on the edge of the North York Moors.
It had been raining heavily but instructors and teachers led the children up the popular walking route.
Dozens of emergency service workers raced to the scene and spent hours battling to save Leah.
But North Yorkshire Police later confirmed the Year 6 pupil, at Mount Pleasant Primary School, in Darlington, had lost her life.
They added no one else had been hurt in the incident.
