Hello all
Thank you for all the messages, the children have enjoyed reading them. I will pass them onto the sports group when we meet them tommorow at Warwick Castle. Children still a little tired as we landed in the UK with our feet running and haven't really had too much time to rest. Sports group left yesterday for Rugby and did the school tour this morning and are driving through to Bedford today.
School group visited the ruins of Tintern Abbey and a Welsh coal mine called The Big Pit. The Abbey was magnificent with the mist lifting over the Abbey as we arrived.
Today we have spent time in class doing Spanish and Welsh and are presently in the computer lab. The weather has been very good to us so far - much to the delight of the English who have been complaining about their weather.
We have located 6 of the 8 bags with one of the others on their way tonight.
Please keep the typing the comments - most impressed with Mrs Bowman who has managed to work all this out - well done.
It was a bit like survivor as the pupils were able to read your comments.
Will post some more once we have met up with the sports group.
Keep well and love to all back home.

Hi Kristine
We had a very cold and rainy and muddy day out at AReena watching the Eco -challenge. Danielle had fun but it was VERY hard in the rain and mud !Some guys got horribly lost in the bush, but they were "rescued"!
We are all at home now- hope you had another good day today .
Love Mom .
Hi Ali,
Just got back from Katberg. We had snow on the mountains. Can you believe it!! Took some pics. Gave Bounty Boy a visit on the way back. Boy he was so dirty. He must have had a very good roll!! Dad and I brushed him & cleaned out his front hoofs. He ate a whole packet of carrots.He should have been a PIG!! How was Warwick Castle?? Hope your weather better than ours. We have had plenty of rain. We all miss you ALOT!!love you love you. Dad, Mom and ALL the animals.... :)
