TEAM 1 ARISTOCATS H

ow appropriate that during our trip, a member of team Aristocats lost their tooth, as, legend has it that children in France who lose their teeth are visited by a little mouse who fetches the lost tooth from underneath their pillow and replaces it with coins! This time around, the little mouse even left a note for our ‘cat’- what a brave mouse! This was just one of the many highlights of our trip for the Aristocats.

It was wonderful watching this group getting on so well together throughout the trip- not just while out and about but also in the lodge- playing games of Uno or hide and seek together, creating shadow puppet shows, giving each other nicknames and chatting over breakfast about their time away. The group had such a great sense of humour and had the staff in fits of giggles more than a few times, but they were also kind and encouraging with each other, especially throughout our day at Disneyland when some didn’t enjoy certain rides or others were feeling a little homesick.

Another highlight for the Aristocats was definitely the Disneyland parade- it was wonderful to watch their faces and see them waving and clapping as the music started and the floats went by featuring all of their favourite Disney characters! One member of the group said it was that this trip was ‘the best thing that has ever happened to me.’
