Aylmerton day 3

A very wet morning didn't affect full involvement in the Pirate Activities - great team work challenges highlighted our class 'Oak Ethos' to support and encourage each other.
There will be many more photos on the display outside Oak Classroom, so please pop in and see them sometime.
The children were a delight to take away, full of enthusiasm and fortitude, helpful and kind to each other. Thank you very much to Mrs Mariner, Mrs Sait and Mr Hills who were a superb team for a happy and successful trip. And thank you for letting me take your children away, they were a credit to you and to EHPS.







Aylmerton trip

We have had a brilliant start to our residential trip to Aylmerton Field study centre, despite the cold and wet forecast. The children all settled in quickly responding to their new 'home' environment. We dodged the showers with fortuitous timing in Cromer museum, and even saw some sunshine during our walk at West Runton, looking in the rock pools and searching for fossils. 
Table Managers quickly learned how to take orders and clear the tables. Everybody tucked in well to a bangers and mash dinner, followed by apple crumble and custard. The twilight walk was too cold to reveal any creatures unfortunately. Glad of hot chocolate, but too excited for bed! All asleep by 10pm






Aylmerton Day 2

Amazing show of our East Harling Primary School motto 'Endeavour, Enjoy and Achieve Together' We are all so proud of the way the children showed such continuous interest in the rocks and shells, collecting and asking questions for the full (nearly) 6 miles, waddling in 5 or 6 layers plus a life jacket and ruck sack! Don't ever let them get away with 'Can you carry my school bag....'?!
The weather didn't detract from the enjoyment. Strangely, the tired walkers soon bounced back to full power with the thought of roast dinner!
Several 'first time' sailors- loved it!

Seals! Lots!

Asked 'Are you having a good time?.The reply was instant.....
