Travel training in action

Hello all,
We've had a very smooth day and have made it to Sint Niklaas without any delays!  The students have been all smiles and chatting on the trains.




We were met at the station by some of the Belgian students and they brought a familiar flag!


We walked to the school and were met by the large group and began our Meet, Greet, and Eat evening.  





The students had great fun getting to know each other.  We played ice breaking games and tried lots of different Belgian foods.  

  
There were lots of tasty treats and everyone found something they liked.  We walked back to the hotel and checked in.  Looking forward to a city tour in the morning and some sports tomorrow afternoon.

  3. Brings back lots of memories to Steph and Jill - sqeaky beds and raw fish. Is all extremely quiet here.

    Everyone on the bus is missing you - Jill

    Yesterday we all had a lovely meal and a great amount of fresh air in the afternoon.

    We hope weather is lovely for your city tour and sports afternoon.

    What was the group's favourite food?

  6. Hello everyone from Belgium! Thanks for all of your comments!

    Class 11
    Lee woke up bright and early! Daniel- the food was excellent and everyone tried something new. There was chips and mayo on the menu (Sue) Katie- the travelling was long but very easy and we got all the right trains.
    Matt- we had our city rally this morning and were eating chocolate before 9am!!
    No bus tours (Gayle) but lots of walking in the sunshine, and now we're playing football outside. It's 17 degrees.
    Lee would like to play football on Monday please.

    Hi guys, no raw fish this year (Jill) and the beds were only squeaky if you jumped on them!
    The group's favourite food was the meatballs and bread! The weather is beautiful here too.

    Class 10SB
    Thanks for your questions. Andy has been very busy and is currently scoring goals on the football pitch! I'm sure he's missing you all. We are having a good time and the weather has been sunny! Woo hoo!

    Hi everyone!
    Samuel, everything is going really well!
    Charlie, our trip was very smooth. We left Huntingdon at 8am English time, and arrived here at 4pm Belgian time. Can you work out how long our trip was?
    Bradley, Jordan says Belgium is "good" and he's enjoying "sports afternoon" the best. Hope you're all having a good time in the nice weather!

    Thank you again for all of your comments! Look again tomorrow for a new post! :)

    Callum: I hope you enjoyed eating the fantastic Italian food at the brilliant Italian restaurant, I think the food looks delicious and spicy.

    Does Belgium have a national dress and is the alarm call at the hotel different from last year? Freya.

    Does Belgium have any myths and legends? Since Scotland has the Loch Ness Monster and America has Bigfoot and we have the Beast of Bodmin. Harry.

    Maddison and Malcolm: Is Ricky saying any of his jokes?

    William: Are Ricky and Jordan having any late nights?

    Rachael G is missing Ricky's 2 jokes a day. Hope he's entertaining you all with his jokes.

    Caroline: Is Fran's bedroom tidy?

  8. Hi everyone in p16jl!
    Freya the alarms are the same as before! Very early! The national dress is related to folk dancing. It is something you can look up!

    Harry the name of the city Antwerp is related to myths and legends. You can also look up the story of SInt Niklaas.

    Ricky has told a few jokes to everyone. It's been great. Ricky has been very chatty in the evenings to Jordan but everyone is getting some sleep!
    Hope you're all having good week!
