From the Teachers

Hi to all,

This is one of the first opportunities we have been able to have a bit of time on the internet. We have just been so busy and having a wonderful time. The students are thoroughly enjoying themselves and are absorbing everything they see, hear and smell (especially the lovely Italian cuisine).
Mr Burns just wants to advise everyone that he is fulfilling his daily nutritional requirements through pizza and gelati (there are many different flavours and types to try). He has become our new navigator.
Mr Deitz has consistently demonstrated his care for the children as his number one priority on the trip and has been taking some fantastic photographs (see the Blog).
Mrs Vanags is having a ball and is fascinated with the many different heritage doors. She has been doing an awesome job of organising the students to ring and speak with the "Sounds of the Mountains".
Miss Nicholls has been enjoying checking out the local scenery and is a great surrogate mother for the students. She is also doing a terrific job as the Blog coordinator organising different students to write each night.
As for me.... I am just loving it. The students in the group are fantastic and I am really enjoying getting to know each one of them a lot better. The teachers are wonderful. We work well as a team and enjoy each others company immensely.

Just a reminder to everyone that this trip would not be possible without the Blakeney Millar Foundation. Thank you so much. We really appreciate it.

Love from

Mrs Stroud

Hugs and kisses to Glenn and Charlie:-)
