An author comes to school...

Class 3 and  4 were pleased to welcome  Mrs Bellhouse to school today.

She has recently written two fiction books for children. They are called 'Dim the Dark' and 'Terence the Thunder'. The books have been published and they are available to buy on Amazon!

Of course we know Mrs Bellhouse because she is Megan and Danielle's mum!
We are proud because Megan is the illustrator and Danielle was the inspiration behind the books!

Delayed update . . .

As promised we will continue to post photographs from our three cameras.

We hope the washing machines are coping with the Welsh mud and that you have all enjoyed being reunited once more.

You gave us all a fabulous welcome home; thank you.

School Council attend meeting

Last night the Key Stage Two School Councillors attended a full govenors' meeting.
The pupils gave an update of  some of the  work that is going on in  school at the moment.

Their presentation included Powerpoint slides about our developing use of Question Trees and Working Walls.

The children also explained to the meeting how our house point system has been updated.

They answered questions sensibly and thoughtfully. All the pupils that attended were a credit. They should be very proud of themselves.
Here are the children pictured with our Chair of Govenors Mrs Pam Garrington.

Day 4

Another fabulous day!

Activities for today:
survival skills
blind trail
nature walk
raft building
abseiling
bivi building
rifle shooting!!

Weather:
Extremely cold, but no rain until this evening and then only a wee trickle.

Food:
They are eating well - some are regulars at munching seconds! - many trying new things.

Packing our cases may take a little time, so this may be the last blog from Abernant Lake Hotel.  I will, however, add more photographs when I have the opportunity.

Please prepare your washing machines for an unimaginable amount of Welsh mud!

See you all tomorrow.

Thank you . . .

Thank you all for your comments.

I was going to load some more photos - but the next session has just started! - guess I'll do that later then.

The children have enjoyed chicken burgers for lunch and are looking forward to the vending machine tonight!
