Balmoral Show

11th May 2023

Rooms 4 and 5 children had a wonderful time today at the Balmoral Show. 

We set off this morning ready to brave any rain showers, but it turned out to be a beautiful day 😎😎

When we arrived we headed for the Main Arena to watch the quad stunts. This was an amazing show which demonstrated the highly skilled stunt drivers! They jumped off ramps and over numerous high vehicles! 

Next we stayed on to watch the show jumping featuring show jumpers from around the world. Since we had seats, we stayed at the arena to have our lunch before heading to some of the exhibitions! 

On the way we met Colin Tinsley who is very popular among our kids as we watch his assemblies everyday. Later we visited his Hope For Youth Ministries stand and got goody bags! 

We visited the Grassmen stand and got a photo taken with Mr Grassman himself. On the way we saw lots of other exhibitions and we loved receiving our free goodies….especially our hats which we loved getting signed by the quad stunt drivers. 

We stopped at an icecream van for some goodies and then headed inside too to spend some money which the children were excited to do!!

We had a wonderful day from start to finish and many of the children said it was the best trip! 
No doubt there are lots of tired legs this evening but the whole experience was completely worth it when the children enjoyed it so much. 😊😊
