Well, I’m back from my daytrip to the seaside with my little lovelies!
It was, all in all, a wonderful trip, though I didn’t take as many pictures as I would have liked, as I was being surrogate mum to one little girl who’s mummy couldn’t come along too… It was a great day for the kids, especially many who hadn’t been to a beach before, and a lovely bonding time for parent and child too!
We collected shells, crabs (dead and alive!) and seaweed, and paddled in the waves. Ate ‘sandy’ sandwiches, and bought ice cream, made sandcastles, and dug out ‘boats’, made sand hurdles for the kiddies to jump over, among many other things!
And the big one for me was taking all these people on a train! Luckily the staff I work with have been doing this for a long time, so I was in good hands, and so were all the children and parents!
But fret not, I got a few photos! Not sure what the quality will be like, but here goes!
The beautifully sandy beaches of Margate!
One biggish ‘dead’ crab!
One of the staff managed to catch a small crab, and a baby one too, and a shrimp! But I didn’t get a picture of that!
Shells! I love a good shell!
Seaweed still attached to it’s rock base!
You gotta bury your feet into the soft sand! Good exfoliation too!
A bit windy!
A good old stick of rock or two, got to be done on a seaside trip!
Windswept in Margate!
Mr Seagull, who was desperately looking for food as we waited for our carriage back home!
And there we have it, my first class trip, as a teacher, to the seaside!
