Seaside Trip 2019

To celebrate the fantastic year we have had at Ben Jonson Primary School we went to Chalkwell beach on Thursday 11th July. This trip was to honour the hard work and support of our parents and families as well as the joy of children who attend Ben Jonson.

We would like to thank Ocean Regeneration Trust for funding this trip which allowed us to travel by coach.  This was a great opportunity for parents and staff to come together to celebrate their child’s achievement. This was our way of saying thank you to the children, parents and staff for working together as a team.

We also had the pleasure of having Lynne Roberts (Vice Chair of Governors) join us in our celebration. The day was filled with lots of fun and laughter from both adults and children all ages. We had a feast with samosas, biryani and brownies as well as lots of other delicious food items.

All families had the opportunity to build their own sandcastles and paper boats. Children then took their paper boats to the paddling pool for a boat race which was incredible to see as they were all very competitive!  It was wonderful to see everybody work together as a team.

The trip ended on a high as we surprised everyone with a medal to celebrate their hard work and achievement! We had a great time and hope to do this again next year!
