We have arrived!

Hello from Bockleton! WE arrived safely and enjoyed a lunch of freshly baked baguettes and a choice of cheese or tuna mayonnaise with lots of salad available! We did the local 3 mile walk through the surrounding countryside, visited Bockleton Church and farm, saw some cows, sheep and some very smelly pigs! The sun's been out and our free time was spent playing football, exploring the grounds and playing on the adventure playground.

Our evening meal was roast chicken, potatoes, peas and carrots and was very well received by the children on my table (the comments of 'this is like a restaurant', 'it's 5 star'!) This pleased the catering staff greatly and will hopefully ensure large portions for the rest of the week!

Most of the boys, and all of the girls have showered this evening. The boys, in particular seem to all have 'very forgetful parents' who failed to pack them ANY soap, toothpaste, shower gel etc... although on deeper inspection of the corners of suitaces, these items were located safely! The boys who have been shower-shy this evening will be gently shoved in their general direction tomorrow... :-)

We hope to publish some photos later on this evening/tomorrow from our walk, and have filmed parts of it for a short film. Internet connection is pretty slow so we're not sure how well we can upload these, but we will try our best!

Missing you all...

Love Mr. Sansom, Miss Grosvenor, Miss Millward and the Bockleton Bunch xxx

    Freshly cooked baguettes for lunch and roast chicken for dinner - your stomach is being well looked after! The walk and playing outside sound super. We saw the pictures of you playing table tennis too.

    Hope you had a great day today.

    Mum is looking forward to coming to Bockleton tomorrow to help out.

    Love from us all.
