We arrived at the Chamber with much excitement for the competition. There were many schools, we sat in our groups ready to start, and then Natalie gave us the countdown ten, nine eight.........We all began, the room was buzzing with children buying and selling furiously.
We stopped and had a much needed break, each school was hoping to be the winner as there was a super trophy to bring back.
We went back into the room and the winners were announced,sadly it was not us but we had such a super time and really enjoyed the experience.
We were complimented on our behaviour and how lovely our uniforms looked..Well done to all the children who participated in this competition.
