An Indian Summer!

We have had an amazing week in school! Just when we gave up all hope of having any good weather, Summer arrived! Blue skies and sunshine,warm days and school outdoors! We brought tables outside so children could do their work in the garden if they wanted! I also brought the easel out so that the children could enjoy painting outdoors ! And of course we had picnics every day …in the orchard, in the front garden and down the field!

We played hide and seek, ball games and ran races in the field! We gathered apples from the ground under the trees and brought them down to the horses,Polo, Scoby and little Wilson the foal!And the horses were delighted with their treats!

I thought that the swallows had left a couple of weeks ago with the bad weather but yesterday we saw a couple and waved goodbye as they set off for Africa!
