DAY TWO - Tuesday 12th January
Update from Mr Woodhead: The day started off dull but dry with a light wind. Everyone enjoyed a bracing walk along the cliff top, stopping off at the coastguard station and then they enjoyed their lunch on the beach. After lunch they did some beachcombing and exploration with some work (not too much though!). They walked inland towards Burniston and then back to the hotel. The children enjoyed exploring outside and playing games until a heavy shower meant the children had to go back inside. After the evening meal they wrote an account of the day and they listened to a story and played bingo. They were in bed by 9.45pm, after enjoying their refreshments.
DAY THREE - Wednesday 13th January
Mr Woodhead has been in touch to bring us up to date. Weather cold but dry.
Everyone enjoyed a hearty breakfast and then travelled off to the Sealife Centre, where they looked round in groups and met up every half hour and watched the feeding sessions of the otters, penguins and seals. They enjoyed a talk about turtles and after lunch spent their fortunes in the shop. After the visit they walked along the promenade and a park to the swimming pool where they enjoyed an hour of swimming fun. The coach collected them at 3.30pm to took them back to the hotel where they showered/bathed to get rid of the chlorine smell. A session of work followed that before enjoyed another hearty 3-course dinner of Mushroom Soup, Fish and Chips with Mushy Peas and Treacle Sponge and Custard. After the meal and a short working session, Mr Wells organised games. The children had their biscuit and bedtime drink before turning in at 9.45pm.
