Dear children of All Hallows School,

After our morning break Mr Moses shared out all the wonderful things which Mr David brought with him from you. All of us were given a pencil case and we also received some new sport kit and some footballs. The younger ones amongst us were able to wear the baby and toddler clothes that Mrs Keirl sent, and Mr Moses and the other teachers were delighted by the learning equipment. The laminated sheets of numbers and alphabets will make our classrooms look so much brighter, because our walls are just plain cement at the moment.

Mr David was introduced to some of our mums and dads, and the Mayor came too. I think Mr David is going to be invited to a nice meal at one of our houses.

The letters from you children in 4M were wonderful, and Mr David told us a little about all of you as we read them. The Mayor loved Olivia’s letter and he wants his daughter Mercy to reply. Mr David will bring back the letters next term.

After school Mr Moses took Mr David for a walk into the Borani conservancy, and this time Mr David saw the elephants about 300 metres across the hillside, and also a very tall giraffe.

Mr David has taught us some more mathematics today. We are very glad that he has come and we think he likes being here too. When you older, will some of you come to see us?

Here are two pictures:one, of some of us in our new kit, and the other is Mr David with the Mayor.

  1. Hello from 4G!

    Are you having a brilliant time Mr Ellery? and are the children enjoying having you there?
    Did the children like their pencil cases? We loved filling them for them - it was fun.
    How long do their lessons last? How have you managed to teach them - they must speak good English because we don't think you can speak Swhali.
    What lessons do they have and which ones are their favourite?
    We are about to have an RE lesson - do they learn about Jesus in Kenya too?
    We hope you are having a good time. Love to all the children, staff and you!
