was thrilled. While I was eating, I couldn’t stop looking at the décor! Everything was just

Read the magazine article about Richard Watson’s school trip to London.

My school trip to London by Richard Watson

Liverpool is my hometown and I never had the chance to visit other cities, but last
month I was able to do it! It was my first school trip and my first time in London! I had a great
time in London. I went with three teachers and all my classmates. I missed my family at first
but by the end of the holiday, I didn’t want to go home!
On my favourite day, we went on a really long walk through the city. We had to carry
all our things on our backs which was hard work but we never got bored because we all
chatted the whole time. First we crossed the Westminster Bridge, which is over the river
Thames. Then we saw Big Ben, St Margaret’s Church and the House of Lords. Afterwards, we
went to the Parliament Square. We visited the Buckingham Palace just before our picnic lunch
in St James Park. And later in the afternoon we took the bus back to Lee Valley Campsite,
where we were camping. We camped there for a week.
Near the lake four of my friends tried to fish, without success! I helped build the fire
instead. The teachers and one of the older students made supper, then we sat around the fire
and sang songs.
On that first night we decided not to sleep inside the tents, but outdoors because we
wanted to look at the stars. Some of my classmates made “animal” noises trying to make us
afraid, but we were still laughing at midnight because we were having so much fun. I’ll never
forget that school trip.
