Wow, where has the week gone? It's gone so fast, but we have managed to fit so much into a short time! Today, our final day, was the first day we woke up without the help of Mrs Pape! We have adjusted to the time change just in time to come home - prepare for early mornings for the next few days!
Most children were packed before we even went across for breakfast - there were lots of us eager to get home now! Once we had eaten our fill, we headed back to the dormitories to make sure we had collected everything. Mrs Pape warned everyone there was a €1 fine for anything left behind - funnily enough every bedroom was clear when they were checked over!
After a sad farewell to Miriam and Julien we set off for Chateau Hardelot - our final visit of the trip. They had set up an exhibition all about Queen Elizabeth II, with photos from the magazine 'Paris Match'. It was actually quite interesting to see the queen at different points during her reign and to see how popular she is with the French.
We then went for a walk to burn a little energy - there is a path to the back of the chateau that takes you around a lake, it was very pretty. Next, it was off to City Europe for lunch and to buy our final gifts. We know you're going to love them...well, if they make it home in one piece that is!
We are currently on the M20 making our way back to Shoreham - the cheer that went up as the coach touched down on British soil was deafening! While on the Eurotunnel, the edible gifts seem to have disappeared - not sure what happened to those but the hyper children could be some indication!
Signing off now, thank you so much for such wonderful comments and for reading the blog - it makes it worthwhile writing it knowing that there's people out there reading it! Everyone is looking forward to their favourite meals for dinner tonight - we're pretty sure that's what we have all been promised!

Hi Miss Salmon, Mrs Pape and Mr Fuller!
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking all of us to France - I had a great time - the funniest part was probably walking into the lamp post, althought it wasn't funny at the time! So again thanks a lot for giving up you spare time to make sure Cameron Class had fun, we did have a lot of fun and we all appreciate you taking us very very much!

Thanks very much to all the staff who made this trip possible. Luke's had the best time and you've given him some very special memories from his last year at Shoreham.
