Week 10

The blog project has reached its 10 weeks of age!

The final deadline for handing in the checklist and writing the 10 posts was Friday 23rd, but as you have noticed: the school was closed on that day!
So I will collect your checklists on Monday 26th in class.

Courage to those whose house got flooded...
I hope you are still enjoying your looong weekend! See you soon!

P.S. Here is a picture I took on Friday on the river, behind Ti-Oui.
