London provides an insight into the diversity of our countries.
The Nursery World exhibition is full of good ideas, books, toys and freebies!
The tube was particularly intimidating at first, but by the end of our trip we were born tube travellers!
Shopping in London is fantastic - if I lived in Camden I would be bankrupt in a week!
Night life is great - nothing seems too close. Lots of great shows to see.
Please can we come again next year?

Not only was the London trip a very rewarding educational experience, but it was fun as students got to participate in the hussle and bussle of city life!
My favourite was the visit to Wandsworth Prison Visitor Centre, it was really great - interesting, fun and a little scary..
This trip definitely gave us an advantage to those who decided not to come, lots of useful information as well as helping us bond as a group, classmates and friends!
Thanks so much for this amazing opportunity. If I had the chance, I'd go again in a heartbeat!!

Hamleys toy shop was amazing, could have spent a fortune on my niece.
Nursery exhibition was fab picked up lots of useful information, which should help me in future.
The visits were eye-openers and very interesting, provided some useful information which hopefully I can incorporate into my nursery once it is up and running.
This London trip was a brilliant opportunity and I was glad I went, would recommend it to anyone on the course.
"If you have the chance go!"
Thanks for a brilliant few days.
