Dr Thein Lwin meets Red Nose Day on Friday 13th!

Well with a weird title like that, the day can only be strange! Today is Thein Lwin's last day with us. After beginning the day with the Maitre Trust, he arrived at school to be greeted with this strange sight...

... because today was Comic Relief day in UK. Forthview children and staff had dressed up in red noses with funny hair and raised about £350 for Comic Relief.

The highlight of the day was when Dr Thein Lwin spoke to Pirniehall and Forthview teachers about his Reading and Writing for Critical Thinking programmes. He also told us about the Environment Education studies on WATER that he had undertaken with Forthview and Hle Bee chilren this year. I hope he will send me some of the work the children shared so I can post it on this blog. This is what our DfID Global Schools Partnership is all about - learning together across countries and cultures. Here you can see Dr Thein Lwin with Pirniehall and Forthview teachers.



Here are the teachers who hope to visit Hle Bee and Dr Thein Lwin's programmes in Summer 2009.
