Isle of Wight: Wednesday

This morning we went to see Queen Victoria's favourite church, St Mildreds (re-modeled by her husband, Prince Albert). We saw the tomb where her daughter, Beatrice and son-in-law were buried. After the church, we continued the royal theme with a visit to Queen Victoria's holiday home Osborne House. We had a little bit of rain and heard a few rumbles of thunder, but we were indoors and escaped the worst of it. After Osborne House we went to Robin Hill adventure park. The children really enjoyed the 'Colossus' ship ride and then we explored the park playing in several adventure playgrounds. Mrs Byrne was an expert on the zip-wire!

Thankyou very much for your comments on the blog. Delighted to hear parents are enjoying the photos. We have passed your messages on to the children. I am really pleased that those year 6's who have stayed at Wykeham are having a great time and keeping busy. Looking forward to seeing pics of the 'bad hair day'.
