Gareth's class have struck up correspondence with a school in the US called Elisabeth Morrow School. The American kids have sent a parcel with letters and a soft toy that represents their school sports team, a soft eagle wearing an "Eagles" shirt. Each of the kids are getting a chance to bring eagle home for a few days and then passing him on to a schoolmate. Gareth has been hanging out for his turn and finally got his hands on him today after he returned from holidays with Tommy. We will try to show him the sights over the next week and will then pass him on to Kayla around the corner!

It's so much fun for children to be able to have a class pet come home and go on adventures. I remember my oldest having one come home and writing about what they did together and take photos. I hope that Gareth and the Eagle have a great time hanging out together. xo
