The third day

Hello All!

This morning the children visited Cooper-Perry School. It's a delightful small school, all on one floor with classrooms without doors. Most unusual - you can view any classroom from the central hall desk! Brilliant for keeping tabs on everything. The children got to see the end- of -year show put on by the CP children, used their computers, played games and also had a game of rounders on their real grass playground. They thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

In the afternooon we went to Stafford centre and took the children shopping at the shopping mall there. It was a joy to see how carefully the children chose presents for you all at home. I am sure you will be thrilled with the thought and effort they put into your gifts. I was so completely touched and loved listening in to their careful conversations, comparing best value for money. You should be so pleased, you've brought them up well!

Now while I'm writing this, they are all outside on the beautiful green field belonging to the college and racing around playing ball. (Ms Rosanne bought them a couple to play with in the evening).

I must go and join the other teachers now because the teachers from Cooper-Perry are coming over to visit us and I don't wish to appear rude by not being with them.

More news and pics tomorrow.

God bless!
