Dear Year 5 Parents and Carers,

The children and staff have arrived safely at Sayers Croft earlier on today and have now had lunch.  

They are now embarking on their afternoon sessions in their groups and are already having lots of fun!  They will be able to unpack, have dinner and attend their evening sessions later today.   The children are having a great time and are very excited!   

The sun is still shining in Cranleigh (Surrey Hills) but will give way to rain tomorrow!   They will continue to have fun - but may get a little wet!

We will update you as and when the teachers send through information.  

A little bit about Sayers Croft:

• Location: Ewhurst, Surrey (GU6 7SS)

• Setting: A 56-acre rural site at the foot of the Surrey Hills, featuring ancient woodlands, meadows, ponds, and streams.

• History: A former WWII evacuee camp built in 1939 by the National Camps Corporation, now operating as an outdoor education and residential centre

• Ownership: The centre and its 56-acre site are owned by Westminster City Council - that supports schools to fully utilise at a very subsidised rate.    

• Sayers Croft London runs the Forest School at Paddington Recreation Ground - where we go every half term!

• Management & Operations: It is run in partnership with The Sayers Croft Environmental Educational Trust (an independent charity established to handle community involvement, conservation, and making the site accessible to disadvantaged groups).
