Happy Easter and New Beginnings

Well here I am again, back in Nigeria! It was lovely to see you all just before Easter and I hope that you are enjoying your Easter break.

Wasn’t the snow amazing on Easter Day? My two daughters were staying with us and we all rushed out to build a snow family in the field next to our holiday cottage! I’ve put my favourite photo of my daughters in the blog. The one closest to the camera is Rachel and the other one is Becky. It just shows that you are never too old to play in the snow!


We had two weeks in England and then travelled back here as I had to continue to help set up my new school. We are now all ready to start….well, apart from the fact that we have no children yet! We open our doors tomorrow, and we have had a lot of mums and dads looking round and taking school brochures and admission forms away with them…we are just hoping that there will be lots starting!


One of the little boys due to start on Monday is called Zack, and it is a really special day for him, because it is his third birthday on our opening day! We’ve made him a birthday crown and are planning to get some balloons and sing Happy Birthday to him!

Today is really hot…over 40 degrees C!! We really need the rains to start as the temperature is climbing so high! The heat brings out the flame trees, and the photo is of a beautiful one in the gardens of our apartment. They are really wonderful, but sadly the flowers don’t last too long. Can you see the huge seed pods hanging down?


I hope that you all enjoy this next term…with exciting things like the Flower festival and sports day to look forward to. Are any of your classes going on any trips?

Do remember to write to me on the blog…don’t leave it all for Mrs. Peart and Mrs.Cox to do!!

Have fun, be good and learn lots!!

Love from Mrs.Sanchez xxxx
