Update from Mr McC @ 22:38pm
It can’t really be that day two has actually gone but reality strikes as we step out of the Lyceum Theatre onto The Strand. The children enjoyed a superb performance of ‘The Lion King’ and are now safely enroute back to the hotel. There won’t be any phone calls tonight as everyone is shattered. The Palace of Westminster held its endless appeal to the children this morning as we toured both houses and the royal robing room and gallery. The Wembley Stadium visit was perfectly timed with of course the obligatory visit to the shop. Everyone is well if a little tired tonight. Another action packed day beckons so more photos and podcasts anon. Keep the comments flowing through the Blog as this is a tremendous support to the children. Perhaps a few more breakfast and early morning calls in the morning so keep mobiles at the ready. Good night from all the Londoners!

Update from Mr McCambley at 11:41pm:
Day 1 is over!
The children have had a wonderful first day in a rather chilly London. The castle in Windsor was busy as ever and we sensed an air of anticipation as the preparations were well underway for Prince Harry’s wedding.
The hotel were superb this evening; having all of our rooms ready for us upon arrival.
George, our driver, took us straight out for a floodlit tour of London. Many photos were taken of the landmarks and we’re finally back to the hotel for a well-deserved sleep. No phone calls tonight as everyone is shattered! Be assured the children are all in good form.
Sincere thanks to Mr Egerton for his behind the scenes work on the school website and the London Blog. The children have enjoyed hearing your personal messages tonight as we were out for the tour of the city. Keep them coming please!
Thank you too to Mrs Fitzpatrick who has co-ordinated and booked every aspect of the London Trip once again. AMAZING and never taken for granted!

After our visit to Windsor Castle the children enjoyed a little spot of shopping in Church Street. Their first opportunity to purchase some goodies and presents for the folks back at home ... we won’t spoil any surprises!!! The form is great and we are all looking forward to a cooked dinner in the hotel this evening.

08:41am: Everyone was in great time this morning to school and consequently we made super progress to the airport. We’re all checked in, we’ve visited the shop and boarding now. All of the children are in great form!
We’d a delay this morning because of high winds in London. Thankfully our BA Heathrow flight was not cancelled unlike the London City Airport flight beside us!
11:40am: To help pass the time our Captain kindly allowed the children into the cockpit and the Second Officer talked the children through the equipment. Despite his best efforts Mr McC was NOT allowed the take the controls. Better safe than sorry.
Onwards and back on schedule!
