Final Day

We are just about to get up for breakfast. Things will be a bit hectic after because we have to strip our beds and pack before our activities! We can't wait to see our families again and our own beds. Parents - I think you will be in for a quiet weekend!!!

Please keep looking at the blog over the weekend because we will try and add more photos from our exiting week. See you soon.

Day 4 Residential

Tonight's bloggers are Harley, Cameron and Ollie.

Everyone had to be woken up this morning, some even had to go to breakfast in their pyjamas. Breakfast today was bacon, scrambled egg, toast or cereal. Then loads of time to have shower and finish getting dressed.

Activities this morning included laser zone, bushcraft and buggy building. In laser zone ‘protect the VIP’ was played, the girls won most of the games. Lighting fires was best in bushcraft. Making buggies was Ollies favourite. The zip wire was amazing, Harley went first and managed to step off the scary edge.

Lunch was pasta and meatballs with fruit or jacket potatoes. The afternoon was a bit eventful with a couple of minor injuries, all casualties returned to their groups fit and well.

More exciting activities this afternoon, mostly in the sunshine, there was a quick shower to dodge. New inventions were built and pitched Dragons Den style. Rockets were sent to the clouds, those standing too close got soaked. Walls were climbed, arrows were fired.

Curry was for tea, quite spicy. Jam doughnuts for pudding. During the afternoon the shop was visited and all our money was spent – look out for souvenirs and gifts coming home.

Disco tonight – not much time to get dressed up but we all changed including Mr Seymour – very fetching in shorts.

We are all feeling exhausted and looking forward to coming home tomorrow having had a fantastic week. Hopefully we will have most of our own belongings in our cases.

See you all tomorrow.

Day 4 N-residential

Pottery Lounge
Guest bloggers Emily Woods and Teigan Reed

Today we have been to Made By Me to paint different types of little animals. Then we came back to
school and went out to play, but unfortunately it started to rain so we came inside on the computers, draw and do cheerleading routines.

When we first arrived at school we gathered in 6DS classroom and started doing some colouring before Mr Martin came in and started yapping on (as per usual). Whilst Mr Martin was talking, Mrs Butterworth, Mrs Manville and Miss Gedge were handing out yellow high Vis jackets. Once everyone had their jackets on we all made our way into the corridor to collect our coats and go to the toilet. When everyone had gone back to the class we did a head count then set off on our journey to Made By Me. Once we got to the Pottery Lounge we sat down on tables of 4 and went up, a table at a time, to choose a little animal to paint. We all tried really hard to produce the best work we could do. Every one said we did a really good job. It was very messy! As we got our master pieces finished we all made an orderly exit, and headed back to school.

After we returned back to school we charged outside for some fresh air and released some energy. We were having loads of fun until, it started to rain ):. As a result we had to go inside and find things to entertain ourselves with. Luckily, we were allowed on the computers (I found a new mathletics) but that's besides the point. Who ever wasn't on the computer was either: doing cheerleading, drawing, playing with the parachute or doing arts and crafts (Amie wins again)!

We had a delightful time at Made By Me and we can't wait for tomorrow when Mrs Green (Brooke Greens mum) will be helping us make our delicious meals. Lucky Miss Gedge gets to bake chocolate chip cookies and cheese straws, lets hope she doesn't eat them all! We will also be making wraps and pizza with Mrs Butterworth and Mrs Manville. We can't wait for the other year sixes to come back, oh we've missed that headache. Hope the other year 6's had a nice time see you tomorrow!!
