Goodbye from Bude!
Posted on June 14, 2025 | By jrichardsonvsp
We had an amazing week at Adventure Bude. We were so proud of the way that all the children coped with being away from home, following complicated instructions and organising themselves so that they were always ready for activities. Everyone was keen to take part in the new experiences on offer and demonstrated resilience and […]

It’s been great to spend time with friends across the partnership. The karaoke competition was fun and lots of us enjoyed dressing up for the fancy dress disco.

Legoland

We’re completely exhausted after a wonderful day at Legoland! It was very quiet in the Park today so we could go on lots of rides. We also joined in with the national Two Minutes Silence for VE Day at noon.
London Eye and Matilda
Posted on May 7, 2025 | By Mr Cole
We had a great flight on the London Eye… Matilda was absolutely amazing and we found the performances of the children, who are the same age as us, completely inspiring. (The adult cast were pretty good too…)
River Cruise and Downing Street
Posted on May 7, 2025 | By Mr Cole
The river cruise today was really interesting (the commentary was very funny) Afterwards, we had a surprise because we got last minute authorisation to go down to Downing St and have photos taken on the steps. Whilst we were there, the Home Secretary arrived for a meeting.
We Saw The King!

We had a really interesting tour of Parliament this morning and a great workshop to understand more about how Parliament works… And then, whilst we were walking towards the river cruise jetty, we saw the King and Queen who were riding to Westminster Abbey. Very exciting!
Evening Walk around London
Posted on May 6, 2025 | By Mr Cole
It was a lovely evening for a walking sightseeing tour of central London. From Hard Rock Cafe on Park Lane, we headed across to the Wellington Arch, then down through Green Park to Buckingham Palace. At Buckingham Palace, the King was there because the Royal Standard was flying. We also saw the guards and lots […]

We decided to get further along the M4 before lunch, and stopped at Reading for a picnic in the sun. (The one not photographed didn’t want his photo taken… he IS with us!)
Invent a fish
Posted on April 4, 2025 | By cpenningtonvsp
Yesterday’s workshop was all about inventing our own animal that lives in the sea. We decided on its habitat, defences, diet, how it hunts and its senses. Here are some of our creations. Please ask your children to explain them to you so you can out what they have learned. I think you’ll agree there […]
