It's the end of the trip and everyone is safely home and recovering.  We had a fabulous day at Alton Towers yesterday, having lots of of fun on the rides and winning our very own class mascot!

As you can see from the pictures below, everyone was in high spirits all day long, and some even managed to stay awake the whole way home!

I am sure the children are all exhausted today, and they have certainly worked hard throughout the week.  I am incredibly proud of each and every one of them - their attitude and effort in so many different challenging activities was absolutely exemplary, and every single child should be proud of everything that they have achieved.

Finally, we have to say an enormous thank you to Caroline and Ian, who gave up their time and so much enthusiasm to help the children have such a fabulous time.  We are all very grateful!

I hope everyone has a restful weekend, and look forward to seeing everyone in school on Monday morning - where we will have the customary 'swap shop' with all of the items that people have accidentally packed in the wrong cases!!

Well done Year 5 - you should be very very proud of yourselves and know that we are all incredibly proud of you!

Some of us were very tired on Thursday evening, and fell asleep during the film!  Needless to say this created a fab photo - sorry girls, I am sure you will seek your revenge on Monday!!
