Great excitement at morning break today: a rabbit has the nerve to stray into the school grounds. It is chased, first by one, then a dozen, and then 50 children are tearing after it across the dusty, thorn-strewn ground.
Rabbit, tiring, heads towards the teachers’ area, and they and the builders join the chase. (I watch, transfixed, like a, well, a rabbit.) Said monsieur then makes a fatal mistake. Taking a left he runs into the plastic sheeting of the greenhouse wall. Thinking, as rabbits do, that if you can’t go through it (it has several valiant attempts) you can try jumping over it. Mr Rabbit, you cannnnnnot be serious! Do you think you are a kangaroo? The hunters close in, and the poor creature is dispatched with one Rooney-esque boot.
Meat for the builders’ supper tonight.
To Mr Ellery (hear his name and shake)

Dear Mr Ellery, Really enjoying reading your blog, I tried to set up an email so I could write to you but it came back to me, technology and I don't work too well. So how do you spend your evenings, are you on your own, do you have loads of books, does it get dark really quickly, and do you hear lions roar in the night? The children look so sweet in their All Hallows kit. I'm so envious of you, what a wonderful experience. Glad you are improving your cooking skills, stone soup sounds delicious, forest school will be keeping that recipe! Now I've got to work out how to send this! Kind regards Serena and Tom Munro
