Student Meeting!!!

HELLO WORLD!!!!

This Week’s Student Meeting is at Cockington, Torquay, TQ2 6XA.

Thursday 11th September 

Cockington is a picture postcard village that dates back to the Domesday Book (1086). With its characteristic thatched roofs and cider orchards it has always been one of Torbay’s most popular visitor destinations. It’s a typical traditional English Village. Please meet me at Cockington Court (the big House) at 2.00pm. From there you can walk around the beautiful gardens & lakes, explore the art galleries, see the craft shops and private church, play football or volleyball on the traditional English green, ride a horse and carriage AND TTPL will buy everyone a Devon Cream Tea or Ice cream. This is a very beautiful place, and very worth a visit if you arehere in Devon . PLUS you get a FREE CAKE and CUP of TEA …..PERFECT!!! I will bring the football, volleyball and sports equipment so we can have fun or chill in the sun!
