    Hi 

    Still singing loudly and have had a quick stop.

    Slight change to the expected time of arrival to 8.00.

  • Friday 28th June (Mr Fryer-Bovair)

    Fingers crossed for 7.30 arrival at school today, but as we said in the meeting, we will inevitably end up in Friday rush hour traffic so we will update on here as we go.

    We have all been really impressed bu the children's manners today. Even when they had been frustrated themselves by other children pushing through queues at the park, they continued to show the highest standard of courtesy. When all 55 of them were queuing for one ride and a small family joined the back of the queue, they very quickly moved aside to let them through. Another fantastic day. Now the disco: wish us luck!

    Good Afternoon,

    Sorry no update yesterday - we made the most of the beautiful evening sunset on the beach and stretched the day right out to bed time. 
    The children were absolutely wonderful at Osborne House yesterday - we had the most amazing comments from all of the English Heritage staff and from members of the public. A packed day there - the children are looking forward to telling you all about it. 
    Boat trip this morning, then up to watch sweets being made and empty our pockets in the shop afterwards. 
    Now at Blackgang Chine enjoying the rides.

    What a scorcher! A lovely morning down on Compton Beach, where we were glad to find that the tide was far enough out for us to see the dinosaur footprints. Some fossil hunting and then some paddling, then lunch on the coach before a brilliant session at the aqua park. Dinner in an hour or so and then back down to the beach this evening. All doing well.

    A fantastic day. Lovely evening on the beach - looking forward to fossil hunting and then the aqua park tomorrow. All well and enjoying settling into their rooms and thinking ahead to tomorrow's room inspections.
