Another great day out!

Yesterday we took our students on two great excursions!

In the morning, we split our groups into two. We did this so that our new arrivals got the chance to see the city of Chester.

Chester is a great city full of quirky architecture and unique history, so we felt that it was a must see for all students who come to Discovery Summer Shrewsbury! The students had a walking tour along the city walls and there was time for shopping in the beautiful city centre. All the students were excellent and we had a great time.

While our new arrivals went to Chester, the students who had already been went to Chester Zoo. Chester Zoo is one of the UK's leading zoos and is devoted to animal welfare and conservation around the world. It is home to lions, tigers, jaguars, elephants, rhinos, bears, cheetahs and chimpanzees to name but a few.

The students at the zoo were met by the students from Chester in the afternoon and both staff and students had a great time seeing the animals and listening to the talks!

After our day at the zoo, there was time for some shopping at the Cheshire Oaks Outlet centre, that offered our students the chance to buy household name products at discount prices.

Then it was back to school for a nice relaxing night at the houses. All our students were fantastically behaved and we all had an amazing experience, they really deserved some time to unwind at the end of the day.
