Friday 23rd May 2025 - After a magical week of adventure, discovery, and countless memories, it’s time for the children to say goodbye to Gordon Brown. They've spent their days exploring the great outdoors, bonding with friends, and challenging themselves in ways that have made us all incredibly proud. Naturally, there are some heavy hearts as they leave behind a place that’s become very special to them. But there's also a growing buzz of excitement as they look forward to being back home and ready to share their stories with loved ones. The coaches are now being loaded, and with a bit of luck with traffic we are expecting the children to arrive back before 3:30pm.
