We've arrived in Sayer's Croft and had a fab first day.  Over to a few of the boys to give you some of their insights...

We've settled in wonderfully, the dorms are immaculate.  We have had many wonderful activities already, such as orienteering and pond dipping.  We got all icky and mucky with rods and buckets, but we found some intriguing creatures/ insects.  I found lesser water boatman and called him Steven the Even.  There was a really cool creature that makes a coccoon out of leaves, we named him MJ.  One group even caught a fish! The food is very good.  We had jacket potatoes for lunch and spaghetti bolognaise for dinner.  We are chilling now in the common room, in which there are so many fun games.  At the moment it's just the boys, at some point the girls will come in too, they are busy doing their 'girl stuff'!!

In summary, we have had a spectacular day, and we love our teachers!!
