The journey today has mostly gone smoothly although we have been slightly delayed due to the late arrival of our ferry back in Dover. We are ready to disembark and will soon be heading back to Milton Keynes.

All the staff on the trip would like to commend the children on their exceptional behaviour this week. We have been stopped by many members of the public, wherever we have been, all commenting on discipline and politeness. We thought you would like to know this so that you can praise your children too. We will let you know when we are an hour away from school; please keep an eye on your parentmail.

Thank you to team Germany’s adults: Mrs Solloway, Mrs Ruggles, Miss Cirigottis and Mr Sullivan. Have a restful weekend.
