HELLO! this is a message from build up day :)

Louise - well i think it was interesting having to empty out all of my kit :P i had bungees, cables ties, sandwich bags and my wind up torch taken off of me!! sorry dad about the torch :P i did try and persuade to get it back, but i dont think that really worked... cant wait till tomorrow now!! :D

Katie - Well the goodbye was hard I lasted 5 mins then bursted into tears love you mum ! Then we emptied out our bags on to the stage, everything was fine but i had to leave behind some beroca, the bits that make my short into to trousers, a top and my roll up shoes ohhh well ....
Had a lovely time working out how to fit eveything into my big bag so it was less than 20kg but all in a good day.
Had a way too big pack lunch and are going out for dinner, see you soon ss :)

Evie- HELLO POOCHIES! Today has been good, Ella fell asleep... I didn't have to take too much out of my bag you'll be glad to hear mum :) we sorted our our roles which was good, except I'm accountant for 8 days, and I'm not the best at maths. I'm glad we don't have to walk too much today/tomorrow but my toe is getting better! So excited for flying tomorrow. I hope we get to blog soon! Love, hugs & kisses

Fiona - Hey hey hey! After an emotional good-bye and re-packing it's fair to say i have become a professional in the rucksack-packing-area! Only a pair of socks and 2 bungees left behind. Im happy with my roles and am looking forward to leaving tomorrow, even though it's very early, and i'm not the biggest fan of flying - HELLO PLANE FOOD. Speak in the next blog. Lots of love x

Ella - YOOOOOOO! We are all very excited at the moment considering it's only 12 hours till we're waking up and setting off! This morning was hard but we all stayed strong for eachother. Mark made me leave 3 tops and a pair of knickers, boooooo. It's starting to feel real now and i am so excited although i already miss my family and friends. Luckily my role for today was transport manager and we have no other options but to walk and tomorrow it is sleeping which we willl be on the plane for so im very happy! Speak to you soon, miss and love you x

rosie- we're all so excited at the moment, going to get food now (im easpecially happy for that!) we've done our rucksakes i had to leave lots of stuff - my conditioner :( not looking foward to tomorrow 13 hours of flying but its all worth it, speak soon, love you all lots x

Amelia- Just to echo what everyone else has said really. Arrived at school at 11 today and it was tough saying goodbye to my family (quite a few tears were shed). We then had to unpack all of our bags and considering it took me well over an hour to get it shut this morning I wasn't best pleased. However, I am now fully packed, really excited now and raring to go. Speak soon x

Emmie - yooo, yeah I can't really think of anything else to say! You know what we've been up to today, thought it was going to be a lonnnngggg day but apart from feeling tired its gone quite quickly, just dinner, bed then we're off! All we've been doing is talking about it I just want to go!!! All Miss Hazell is obsessed with talking about is the pooing situation - unluckily I am her 'buddy' meaning we go on poo trips together. WOOOOOOO!!!! Oh and I was happy I didn't have to leave much behind so all that worrying about whether I've got everything was not necessary! Anywhoo, byeeee :)

Natthida - not a lot to say still in shock that we are going tomorrow!!

Miss Hazell- Thanks Emmie for sharing that with everyone, but seriously we do have to have toilet buddies, she just got the short straw!  I am very excited now and feeling proud about how well the girls handled their goodbyes this morning, they are all ready for the challenge and up for the exciting times ahead. xxx

Mark -girls make so much noise, what have I let myself in for!!!!
