Windmill Hill Day 3
The children slept really well last night and woke full of energy; the adults not so much!
We went for breakfast, which was sausages this morning with hash browns, beans and mushrooms; there was also fruit, cereals and toast.
We then went for our first activities these included raft building, survivor (den building and fire lighting) and abseiling. The children loved raft building and spent alot of time jumping in the water and splashing each other- it was lovely to see huge smiles and them having lots of fun.
lunch was a roast dinner with Yorkshire puddings and plenty of gravy. Mrs Pursar was unhappy that there was no bread sauce- though I think she may have been a little to picky!
Miss Yeates has been a bit sad that she missed Craig David yesterday in Southampton, thankfully for her the children have been singing all weekend and hopefully they will sing the 'nonsense' songs for you when they get home (hopefully not for longer than 7 days, as they can get quite annoying)
let's Rewind back to the afternoon activities, where the children have down trapeze, orienteering, archery amongst others. The children have really just got on with activities and have been really brave.
Dinner tonight is lasagne or sausage rolls amongst other options. Mrs Burrough is yet to fill me in on the evening activity but I'm sure it will be good.
As tomorrow we are walking away from the residential, I would like to thank all of my staff, they have been amazing, shown patience and kindness; some of them will not have had a day off for 13 days by the time we have done the school fayre and I could not give this opportunity to the children without them.
This will be my last blog as we are travelling back tomorrow.
Mr Wartnaby
PS sorry for the bad Craig David puns for those of you that spotted them! I had to do something fun for the staff and I couldn’t say Bo.
