The Last Day of Activities

Once again this week we have had a fantastic and an amazing time at Windmill Hill. The children have also really made us proud to be their teachers as once again the PGL staff have personally thanked the children for their behaviour.  The catering staff wanted to thank us for being the tidiest, quietest children in the dining hall who are always polite and leave their tables spotless after finishing. We also received praise from the instructors and during the morning instructors briefing they are all eager to work with Springfield school children as they know they will be thanked, listened to and most importantly have a fantastic time teaching them.

We have decided to follow the same format as last year where we have asked each child to give us quote of their most memorable experience of the week. Please read them all and not just your own child’s as some will make you laugh, others smile and some even might cause you to shed a tear.
