The Torch Returns! By Megan 6S

For a few weeks Heathlands has been involved in the Consortium Schools' Torch Relay using our own torch which has travelled between schools in Colchester.

On Monday 25th June the torch returned to Heathlands.  To celebrate this event, the yrs 5 and 6 lined Lexden Road, West Bergholt and other year groups were on Chapel Road.  The torch arrived on a carriage.  Mrs Carter held the torch confidently dressed in her greek Olympian style dress.  Six children, one from each year went with her.  It travelled all round the village and came to a stop in front of the school.  You could see the horses were dressed up for the ocassion with orange flames on their manes and their tails plaited neatly.

It was an amazing event to watch, the horses, the carriage and lots more.  We are all excited to see what will happen next.
