‘Our Thoughts’ – Monday 21st September

Each night a few of the children will update us on what we have been doing!

 

Elizabeth – We had a group picture taken in front of a massive Ferry! We timed it perfectly. We walked along the seashore. The views were fantastic! Our room looks out onto the river and some lovely green hills.

Findlay – I’ve enjoyed all the meals so far. At mealtimes we need to take our turn at being monitor to clear away dishes and keep the tables tidy. My group did the Safari today. We saw mousetraps but we let the mice free.

Adam – My group went a walk down the seashore. Our group leader pointed out sea creatures on the rocks like limpets and dog wilks and barnacles.

Lily – Today my group were with Derek doing the Safari. I liked when he rescued a mouse from a trap and then let us see it before he let it go in the wild.

Dylan – When we arrived we got a tour of the buildings. We had to collect all of our kit like wellies, jackets and waterproofs.

Mia – Today my group went out onto the beach. We explored the rocks and looked for sea creatures. We learned how to make a noise using a blade of grass.

Kelsey – Today we went on a safari. Derek was our instructor. He was really funny. We looked at mice, voles and ravens and we got to feed the seagulls.

Chloe McSherry – We did an outdoor activity tonight which was really hard. It was called Airport and it was a bit like a treasure hunt in the dark! It was so much fun!

Katie – My group were climbing on the rocks at the seashore which was really hard. We found loads of slugs on the rocks and found out why they were there.
