“It is said that in every one of us something of the child remains and perhaps it is the child’s love of models and miniatures that lies at the heart of Bekonscot’s appeal.” (Bekonscot brochure –Jarrad Publishing 1999)

Thursday 26th of June I took my class (along with other willing members of staff)
to Bekonscot model village. This is the second year running I have done this and it was even better this year. The weather was hot and sunny and the children were a credit to the school and their parents. The journey was a little over the hour and I had no “I want the toilets” or “Are we nearly there?” I only had one “I feel sick” and that was very short lived. The village was fantastic, the model train was brilliant, the playground was fun and picnic and toilet facilities first class. The gift shop arranged goodie bags so we did not have to suffer the long queues and they did not have to suffer us!
Well worth a visit.
