One of the nicest things about being away is that there has not been one mention of missing mobile phones whilst away. Lots of chat, singing and games. Most popular song pictured. Everyone has had a great time.

We’ve got a really long list of students without consent to publish photos. This limits what we can post so most pictures will not be of individuals and therefore most pictures will be from behind or taken further away.
