On Wednesday morning we went swimming at Hindley swimming pool as usual, then the plan was to drive to Haigh Hall Woodland Park to eat packed lunches and then play on the park. Unfortunately, once we had eaten our packed lunches at Haigh Hall we had to return to school. We had a minibus full of disappointed pupils, but do not worry as we had a back up plan! Once we had sorted everything back at school, we decided we could walk to one of our local parks instead, so we had a vote to see which one the most people would prefer- Astley Park or Devonshire Rec. The winner was Astley Park with 8 votes so off we set walking to the park together. We all had lots of fun playing on the park, especially on the zip wire. Everyone coped very well with the change to our plans and everyone understood why we needed to return to school and change our plans. We still managed to enjoy ourselves!
