Day 2 News

After a not too bad waking up time of approx 6.30am all were ready to go and we had a lovely cooked breakfast, cereals and fruit. Groups have then done 5 activities throughout the day, including fencing, laser maze, abseiling, climbing, rocket launch and everyone is currently creating the next big thing in fashion...using bin bags! Looking forward to seeing the photos!

Lunch today was curly fries, pork escalope and salad, evening meal was chicken or beef curry, with rice and a chocolate eclair for pudding. Most children have 'discovered' the tuck shop earlier today and some weren't overly hungry for their meals. We're sure that once the novelty factor dies down (and they run out of money!) their appetites will return. Children cannot live on sweets and crisps alone. Can they?!

We've taken lots of photos which will be uploaded this evening, and we've had a first attempt at creating a video on the iPad 'in the field'. We'll try uploading that shortly. If you don't spot your child in the videos or photos, don't worry, they are all fine- we are trying hard to capture everyone on film as the week progresses!

Thanks for all your twitter messages- we haven't had a chance to get replies sorted yet but will try to do this evening! Watch your feed for updates! Mr Haselgrove also visited today and was impressed with the facilities and site.

Lights off tonight at 9.30pm, and some children are looking very tired, so we're hoping for an even better night this evening. If you've spotted your child looking cold outside we have been REPEATEDLY reminding/telling them to wear lots of warm clothes and TAKE their jackets out of their rooms with them to activities. It has fallen on deaf (cold) ears today for some. We expect that they will be better prepared tomorrow.
