Summary: Children hang around the Brandon Estate. A coach arrives. And then another coach. A policeman chats to some of the adults. The children have lollies. A man with a clipboard talks to a young man. A fourth coach arrives. People board the coaches and they set off. Onboard the coach, children eat apples. The cameraman films from the front of the coach. An intertitle says, ‘Pitter patter goes the rain. Now that we are back again AT CANVEY ISLAND’. The four coaches arrive at Canvey Island and everyone disembarks.
