Hi

Well I managed to contain myself until I got back to the car!
They were half an hour late going - which isn't much but its ages when you are holding in the tears!


Julie
He has gone to Kingswood - which isn't PGL but do similar thing. They do PGL in year 6.

Hi penny, hope he set off ok.
I feel for you, my 10 year old goes away with the school in July, only 3 days but I am dreading it.
Anyway I'm sure your son will have a good time and be home before you know it. Keep busy.

Hiya Penny
Hope your son has set off ok this morning. Dont worry - he will come back home full of stories and probably shattered with too much staying awake at night chatting to all his mates! LOL
Hope you got plenty of washing powder etc for the washing on his return!!! lol
