September 2017 - What have we been doing today?
Monday -
Left wet grey swindon at 9am with a happy cheerful coach driver! Once over the Severn bridge the sun shone and warm weather was upon us. We passed the Celtic manor and waved to Miss Cockwell's mum! We then stopped at Bridgend services for toilet and snack - some ate their lunch at 10:25. Back on the coach then onwards to Carmarthen and Pendine. We arrived at Morfa at 12:15 all safe and sound. After lunch first activity - three groups climbing and zip wire. Miss Harris group off to woodland scramble water mud and scrambling before tea. Weather is glorious. Luckily Miss C has sun tan spray! Tea was chow mein or sausage roll, beans and curly fries. All eaten and plates clear. After tea the children all took part in an orienteering and autumn treasure hunt to find the answer to a set of word clues. Hot chocolate and pyjamas followed at 8pm, with a bedtime story. It took until 10:30 of teachers walking the corridors before everyone settled. Miss Cockwell is not going to be sweetness and light tomorrow after a late night settling. Tomorrow morning all up and breakfast at 8am before all to the beach for sea activities.
Tuesday -
Early rise this morning. All were awake and lively at 6am, except Miss Cockwell.
Rooms tidied and getting dressed, then breakfast at 8am.
Then came the challenge of how to get a wet suit on successfully and boy was that a challenge. Then it was down to the beach for a morning of body boarding and the waves were great. Back to Morfa for a hot shower, change and lunch.
Woodland scramble archery and coastal walk completed - now curry for tea and birthday cake for birthday celebrations.
