The New Tour Guides

Posted on by

The new Tour Guides had their Launch last Friday (Friday the 22nd of June 2012) and it went very well!

We had to do it in the Big Hall because the castle was too wet so we so that meant we couldn’t have it at the castle. We each got different parts of the script and there were seats put out in the Hall so that our parents could watch and we all got shortbread and juice at the end!

Every one really liked our costumes and Mrs Sell took photos of each of us in our costumes!
