So how does this all work.

First and foremost I should introduce myself. For those who don't know me I'm Mr Bond and I'm one of the staff who are travelling to Wales with the Yr7 trip during the summer of 2010. The idea came up that a "real time " record of the events of the week would be a good idea. The reasoning for this is that it was felt that it might be nice for parents to see what their offspring are getting up to during the week. I must stress that this is not a tool for contacting the young people on the trip as one of the main points of going away is to gain a little independence and confidence, there are emergency numbers available in the parent's pack for this purpose.

The plan (mobile Internet permitting) is to write 3 times a day. Once just before breakfast saying what all the groups will be doing, once during lunch reporting on the morning's activities, and once during the evening with a review of the day.

I will be assisted in the evening blog by a representative from each group or tent and it will contain a humorous "letter home" from an imaginary student.

I must stress that no individual student will be identified photographically though there may be photos of activities put on the blog. It would be great to hear from any members of staff or parents during the week but please try to keep your comments general and encouraging.

Having gone on this trip last year, I am very excited about this week. I think I can safely say it is the best trip which the school does. I've put some photos from last year up so that you can get an idea of what goes on.

We'll see you all early on the morning of 12th July.
