4 Weeks & 1 Day!!!!

OMG!!!!!!! We are sooooooooooo excited!!!! We've been shopping ever since we found out (but then again, we never miss an excuse to go on a MASSIVE shopping spree!!! lol!)

When we got back no-one believed we had won and it took a few days to sink in! Since then we have been the local celebrities. The next day we went to the BBC Radio Solent studios and did a section live on air! It was an amazing experience and we were even treated to a look behind the scenes at the BBC South Today studios(we sat on Sally's sofa!!!!!). Also we were asked to write a press release for the Southern Daily Echo (which, as far as we know, has not yet been published!) and had pictures taken for an article on the front of the Hampshire Chronicle. Although there are the downsides - having to explain to absolutely EVERYONE exactly what we had done to enter and also about where we are going.(not that that's a bad thing.....!)

We have been looking up on the internet about Svalbard and about the whole experience and it looks FANTASTIC!!! We want to say a MASSIVE thank you to our Geography teacher Mrs Broadribb who introduced us to the competition, also helped us with our entry and organising everything!!
We are now really busy trying to focus on our environment group within school and both implementing recycling and creating a garden with herbs and possibly vegetables in the future!!!


Luv y'all!!!!!! mwah!!! x..Natures Angels..x.x
