Boarders Trip to Lightwater Valley

On Sunday the 13^th September all the boarders went to Lightwater Valley theme park. After a two hour drive we got off the bus and had some lunch. After lunch we all got a ticket and went in the park. We were spit into groups with each gappie, the year 4s and 5s and year 6 girls were with Miss Matson, year 6 boys were with Mr Douch and the year 7s and 8s were not with anyone. All of the groups decided to go on "Eagle's Claw" first; most people loved it and some people thought it was terrifying.

The good thing was though that nearly everyone went on "The Ultimate"; everyone was so surprised that Matey Ellie and Mr Lord went on!!!!!!! After a couple of other rides we all went to see Mr O'Sullivan for a short meeting. We all went back to ride some more brilliant rides. Nearly everyone in Miss Matson's rode "Wild River Rapids," the new water ride. After a couple more rides we headed off to the bus and went back. We would like to thank Mr O'Sullivan for such an enjoyable day, the gappies and Matey Ellie for coming, and the bus driver for driving us there and back.
