Week 6 day 5

Today, as a treat, we all got to go to Leicester city centre in the afternoon, for some shopping or free time as it is the last day of summer school 2014. We got to look around and buy some souvenirs before we leave. In the evening we had our final farewell party of the summer. We all got our certificates and reports, and awards were given out for activities and special achievements. We then watched the final farewell DVD to celebrate the best memories of the last 6 weeks and finished off by having a big party at the PK with a BBQ.

Tomorrow some students are going to Cambridge for their IELTS test. Good Luck! The rest of us are travelling to Birmingham to visit Cadbury's World. We get to see how all the chocolate is made and how it was invented and even test some of it! We then got some free time to look around and shop for last minute presents.

Brooke House Summer School would like to bid farewell to the BEC group and their brilliant leaders and to all the individuals who are leaving! :(

Summer School 2014 is now finished! We hope you all enjoyed it and we'll see you next year!
