The best school trip ever!


Hi! I’m Justin and I live in Cambridge. The
school trip to London last week was a blast!
The bus picked us up at school at half past
seven and we arrived in London one hour and
5 a half later.
We started the visit with a river cruise along
the Thames. We really loved the view! Then we
visited one of the most important tourist
attractions in London, the amazing Madame Tussauds wax Museum.
10 We were having lunch in St James’s park when the teachers told us they had a surprise.
They showed us tickets to visit the Harry Potter studios. We were all so excited! We spent the
whole afternoon there. It really was a magical afternoon.
At seven p.m. we started the Science Museum Astronight sleepover experience. When we
arrived, the museum guides were waiting for the groups to do the check-in. Then they showed
15 us the sleeping area where we put our overnight kits: sleeping bags, pillows and backpacks. It
was the astronauts’ area, so we were sorrounded by spaceships and space suits.
Fifteen minutes later Susan Raikes, the director of learning, welcomed the visitors in the
auditorium. She also invited the participants to stay in the museum for a guided tour after the
Astronight.
20 At half past seven we started the activities and the workshops. Around ten we had a snack
and then the trail activity began. It was my favourite. We didn’t sleep much because we were
too excited.
After breakfast we watched an amazing 3D movie and then we went back to the bus to
return to school. This was the best school trip EVER! I will not forget this experience.
