Things that go bump in the night … and snore all the way home (hopefully?!)
staff2022-08-18T13:26:59+01:00After a chilled movie evening watching School of Rock, we all settled down for the night (finally, a warm cup of tea!). Until the clock struck twelve and the thundering of elephants on creaky floorboards alerted us to an emergency of the bump kind. Giant floor bed created to cheer up our wounded soldier (how Thea slept through that I’ll [...]

London Day 2…
Julian Thomas2022-08-18T13:26:59+01:00Day 2 in London. Certainly a first - we actually had to wake the children up this time. Breakfast was served by Miss Trute in our lodge and we were ready for the outdoor centre in plenty of time. We left the lodge in drizzle but arrived (it's nextdoor!) to blazing sun! Climbing first and some holds surprised us with [...]

staff2021-05-18T18:20:02+01:00After a very early start for everyone (except the boys in room 1 who would have slept through a concert in their room!) It was off to Ilfracombe for Kayaking...

Real life wasp nest!
staff2021-05-18T14:24:04+01:00We found a wasp nest hanging from the ceiling in the corner of our Wendy House. We carefully (checking there weren't any wasps inside) brought it inside to have a look. We couldn't believe how soft and papery it felt. We cut it in half to see the empty cells. It was perfect timing for our minibeast topic!! :-) [...]
London Day 1…

We met at the train station, which confused one or two since we were off in a minibus. Emma Trueman took some excellent Manchester Band style photos before we set off too, thanks. There was the M5, M4, M25 & [...]
Save Our Trees!
staff2022-08-18T13:26:59+01:00It all started this morning when the children were tidying up the creative table. Holly said, "No, we can't waste paper because then we cut down more trees and we won't have any oxygen!" Myla said, "All the wasted paper that it's in the bin is wasted oxygen!" So, we came up with some ideas of what we could do [...]
