Welcome

An early start this morning! We caught the ferry at 8:30am and waved goodbye to the island.

When we arrived at Portsmouth we learnt all about Nelson and HMS Victory. What an incredible learning experience had by all. Hot and tired but have all had so much fun.

Staff very proud of the children. They have shown how keen they are to learn and impeccable behaviour. Thank you for making this visit so enjoyable.

In the morning, we dipped into palaeontology at the Dinosaur museum and searched for fossils on the beach.

After some lunch we went to Robin Hill, where we saw a falconry display. Then we had some free time to play on the slides, walk across the Carp Quay and even went on the toboggan run. The sun shone all day!

In the evening, we gave Ryan a prize for being pupil of the week and Mrs Cole received a retirement gift from the hotel. Then we boogied at the disco!

Another wonderful day. We spent the morning at Brading Roman Villa, where we looked at some beautiful mosaics. Then we took a long bus journey to Alum Bay. We bought some souvenirs and had some ice cream. After a slightly nervous queue, we got on the chair lift down to the beach, where we took a boat ride out to the Needles. The wind picked up - it was a bit choppy! Some children faced their fear of heights and we all went on the chair lift!

A tiring day but lots of fun! In the evening we played on the beach and some of us watched the World Cup semi-final.
