On Wednesday, I spent the day with my friends at Whitchurch CofE School. They were hosting their pen friends from, Welford School in Handsworth, Birmingham, after a reciprocal visit on Monday. Afetr viviting the quaint village Church, we all tramped up to the Forest School, a wonderful, overgrown wooded area, that is all laid out for the school to use as an outside classroom. We sat round the Campfire and Mrs Powell showed us how to make popcorn. It was such fun, I filmed it and speeded it up for you here.

The sun was shining and it felt so Rural, I read Dylan Thomas’s Fern Hill to them all. I’m not sure what they made of it, but I bet they’ll come across it later in life and go, “Oh yeah!”
