Safely home... but don't stop reading the blog as there's more to say!
We arrived home safely and on time on Thursday 24th July and are all fine. Please have another look at last week's blogging, particularly FRIDAY 18 JULY because I spent Wed afternoon in Bangkok uploading more photos and filling in stories.
Glad to know you are all safely back.
ReplyDeleteThere is a superb budding artist in your last photo on 18/7- is there anyway, we can an have an exhibition of Burmese children's art here in Scotland- perhaps coupled with stories about each child...bringing issues in...
The blog is a wonderful online resource which should be shared with student teachers - well maybe not all the bog stories...but certainly a selection..it is a narrative in its own right and should be used for wider learning... perhaps you and I can think how when we gather to have our cuppa.
I am really looking forward to that cuppa, Rowena. So much to catch up on, maybe it should be a weekend!
ReplyDeletei echo Rowen's comments - and would love to catch up for a cuppa and some more stories. Maybe you should have a wee coffee morning?
