Torquay 2007

< Back

Year 6 returned from their annual trip to Torquay, before half term, very tired but having had a truly great time. It was a fun packed week with plenty of experiences for everyone.

Libby said, “It was great to be away from our parents for a week and to be doing lots of fun things with our friends.” Seph added that visiting places he had never been to before was very interesting.

Both Libby and Seph enjoyed Wookey Hole: going through the caves hearing about the Wookey Hole story and the legend of the witch. Libby described it as it was ‘fun and spooky’.

A further highlight of their week was Canonteign Falls—a longish walk up hill through the woods and down again, taking in the picturesque scenery and waterfall. Seph felt the waterfall looked great and he also enjoyed the walk up and down. The weather was superb and we had a great time at the beach building sandcastles and paddling in the sea!

The guests of the hotel were thoroughly entertained on a couple of evenings by the children dancing at the disco.

The class were a delight on the trip and were a real credit to the school. The guests in the hotel were full of praise and kind words about their behaviour and their manners. For many the children made their holiday. We are all very proud of them. We have received a number of letters from guests at the hotel complimenting the children. So a big thank you to all the children.
