Day 1 Update



After a safe journey in the rain we arrived safely at Condover Hall and quickly discovered our rooms and unpacked. We had a quick fire drill and tour of the site before starting our first activity- see the pictures on the school website from the variety of activities we tried today! 

Dinner was served at 5.30pm and was a choice of burger and chips, sweet and sour chicken and noodles, a huge salad bar and cheesecake for dessert! The children all ate well and are currently sat in the evening activity called ‘Egg Protector’, where they have already invented their own stories about their eggs (that they will be protecting!) and presented these to the whole group. The are busy building boxes for their eggs as I type and are all working well together in their activity group teams!

We’re very pleased to announce some EXTREMELY tidy rooms already; the current winners...believe it or not...is one the boys rooms. Let’s see how that lasts! 

All the children are happy and having a great time so far, so please don’t worry. We have very patchy coverage on mobiles (and lots of children!) so its unlikely we’ll be able to send regular tweets direct from the children, but we have a Plan B to get some messages home; keep an eye on the school website. If you tweet us, we’ll pass these messages on where we can. We aim to upload photos on the blog and a quick text update each night, so keep checking back for updates! 


Enjoy your week of peace and quiet!
