Morning. Another fresh start to the day after the children went to bed without much fuss last night.
Having just had a cooked breakfast, we will be putting our bags and cases on the coach and heading off to the beach for a morning of rock pooling and playing on the sand. After our picnic lunch, we will be starting the trip back to school at about 12:30. We will keep you updated with our arrival time at Wray Common.
Day 2 – Thursday at 10:25pm
After watching the sun set over the Norfolk broads, we drove back to the activity centre where we had a world record, top speed shopping experience before dinner. After dinner we wrapped up warmly and armed with our torches headed out into the woods on a Wind in the Willows Quest. We tiptoed through the ‘Wild Woods’, located lots of mole hills, found a few possible homes for Badger before arriving at Toad hall. (Actually it was Felbrigg Hall but we’re sure Toad would have been very happy with it as a home.) We also visited George – the hollow oak tree.
Exhausted after so much fresh air bedtime was another smooth event.
Day 2 – Thursday at 8am
Good Morning. The sun is up, the day looks dry and the teachers are smiling due to a restful night! After a slight change of plan due to the weather, we ended last night with some great stories from the storyteller before going to bed. We are going in for a cooked breakfast before heading off to see the seals this morning and boating on the broads this afternoon.

Everyone has arrived safe and sound! Lunch has been eaten and they are settling in well to start their activities at 2pm.

Morning activities yesterday all went well with children demonstrating their Wray Common Values. Despite the rain and thunderstorms pausing some of our activities, the children had great fun playing different games in the tent like giant connect 4, giant Jenga, juggling, tiles problem solving and a game of splat. We had a lovely hot dinner and children are all ready for a good nights rest.
Day 2 – Thursday at 10:30am
Despite the cold weather, the children managed some sleep and were very pleased with the breakfast to fuel our morning. We have stuck into some team challenges on a challenge course and high ropes for the groups that didn’t complete them yesterday. We are looking forward to this afternoon’s activities after a well deserved lunch.
Day 1 – Wednesday at 9:45pm
Children had a great first day either doing archery or high ropes. All were feed and had an evening walk followed by team games working on our collaboration skills. All ready for a good nights sleep!
