Yes it's another week off! Years 7 and 8 have finished their exams and can enjoy a relaxing week, but do they dare go to a British beach?
Today the Marine Conservation Society (MCS) announced that, due to last year's storms, of the 779 beaches that were tested for water quality 443 got the top rating with the remainder failing to make the grade.
The MCS claim that the 2007 summer storms washed raw sewage and animal waste into rivers and coastal waters and that has affected the quality of water.
So if you are going to a UK beach check out the Good Beach Guide to see if you risk the chance of stomach upsets or eye infections.
Happy holidays!
