Great Experience Overall we had a great trip and we have lots of good memories from our trip in Edinburgh Having been to Loch Insh now we can see how much this trip helped us gain confidence and be more independent

An Extra Reminder Grow a fiver will be taking place in term 4 so now would be a good time to start thinking how you can grow your fiver Last year we had activities such as nails, tattoos, popcorn, beat the goalie, darts game, home bakes, car washes A good tip to earn more money is to do more activities outside of school
