Day Two - Thursday 19 June

Following the previous day of excitement we set off in various directions, some went to the Lowry and others went to Old Trafford, home of Manchester United.

At The Lowry there was an option to do either 3D Modelling or to take part in Drama. In 3D modelling we first took part in an automatic drawing challenge (not looking at the pencil or paper), then copied some of Lowry's drawings and sculpted them into figures.

In Drama we tried a series of exercises plus very hard brain teasers! We had to use our bodies in extremely different ways and used characters from Lowry's paintings to base our improvisations.

Old Trafford was amazing and the actual stadium is huge. It was great to see the players changing rooms and the shirts. I loved walking through the tunnel on to the pitch to the recorded sound of the crowd roaring! Mrs Heery was asked to sum up Old Trafford in one word and she chose 'stupendous'.

The evening meal was lovely and the choice of evening activities was extremely hard to choose from; supporting England in the World Cup, watching a DVD, playing in the games room or chilling in our rooms.
