Consortium Torch returns to Heathlands in style!! Report by Heathlands Olympic Reporters

First thing this morning we made special flags and banners for the return of the Consortium Olympic Torch.  The whole school then lined the streets of West Bergholt waiting for the grand arrival of the Torch bearers.  To our amazement huge Suffolk Punches (courtesy of Buntings) transported the torch, the Goddess Olympia (aka Mrs Carter) and our torch bearers Emily 3C Teighan 4B Lucy RLS Jack 5B Hannah 6S and Megan 2K through West Bergholt to our School amongst flag waving, clapping and cheering.  Teighan 4B said that she was honoured to be a part of the celebration and it was fun but a bit strange being in the cart.  She said that the horses were beautiful.  Megan said "I was suprised that my name was picked out of the hat, the horses were very pretty and everything was amazing".  Emily said "it's quite exciting but a bit scarey on the carriage, I really liked the Olympic flames it was really wobbly on the carriage".  Lucy said "it was very wobbly.  It was fun, I was really excited".
