A Great Time at Little Canada

 Year 6 arrived back safe and sound after enjoying lots of fun and adventures on the Isle of Wight. They stayed at the activity centre; Little Canada for the weekend accompanied by Mr Smart, Ms Bennett, Mr Baker and Ms Bish. Mr Smart has said how very proud he was of the children and their excellent behaviour throughout their stay. Iexpect there will soon be some pictures of their adventures on the website. Don’t forget to look out for them. Thank you to the adults who kindly gave up their weekend to accompany the children.
