The final night...

The final night has arrived and the children are busy spending their last pennies on sweets and presents. 
The glad rags have been adorned and all are ready to boogie on down at the disco. 

We've enjoyed visits from Mr Burrows and Mrs Owen this week so thank you to both of them. 

All the children took part in raft building today and also in jumping off them. Great fun was had by every single one and the staff too. Jon did a convincing impression of Leonardo Di Caprio's final moments in the icy water and Jada nearly suffocated Mrs McSweeney who was trying to get her back on the raft for the fifth time. 

One of our favourite moments today was Danyella reaching the top of the climbing wall with no qualms and then getting scared of a fly buzzing around her as she dangled from the top. 

Most children passed their PGL driving test on the quad bikes, although there were some spectacular crashes. 

Despite our 'chat' about packing techniques, we are glad it will not be us opening those bags tomorrow afternoon. Beware of the bin bags full of wet clothes in particular!

We've had an amazing week and the children have been a credit to their parents and the school. We are looking forward to some more activities in the morning, before handing back some very tired, but proud and happy children, who seem to have grown up an awful lot this week.
