School Children Visit Flying Club!

This week 22 Sapperton C of E Primary School children visited Kemble Flying Club to learn something more about flying which is in their curriculum. The visit included time with dy on everything from Ikarus and Elmer through the sheep, the duck and the cockerel on the first balloon flight in 1783, past the Wright brothers to hang gliding, paragliding and modern microlight flying. They also had a short slide show on flying in Nepal and Africa so were taken from the highest glacier in the World to the rainforest and the desert! Amy and Will from Cotswold Airport showed the children around Negus the Jumbo Jet which somehow included some Swiftie music and some dancing!  So, thank you to them and also to Jim and Roger from the Britannia Society who showed off their aircraft and allowed all the children in the cockpit. And, thanks to the children for their thank you card.
