Rain.

It has been a very wet day today though there was some bright sun at lunchtime. The roads aren't flooded -yet, but will be soon if this rain keeps up. We had a couple of sports specialists who are promoting their after school sports club which will be run in school twice a week (for a small fee), come and take each class for a taster lesson. That would have been a break for me if I hadn't been dealing with a howling little darling who was in a right strop because I had confiscated her hair clip which she had been jabbing into another child. Those sort of tears certainly don't melt my heart. We're still busy on our castle theme in class. Last week we borrowed some bricks from another class and the children built many wonderful castles. The one above was built by a big group who decided to work together. Sadly now the bricks have been returned and we are left with lego which does not lend itself to such flights of fantasy. After school I put up the backing paper all along one of the cloakroom walls preparatory to making a big castle display with lots of the children's work. Hopefully I'll be able to get the work up tomorrow as I don't like looking at blank walls.
