Oh look! folks its me in the middle, as requested.

Callum bought one for the office "Mum" so that you can keep all the ideas for your own Blog, he suggested you call it "The Office" but said their may be issues with copyright.


Best wishes to everyone back at work from all the staff and pupils.




Scott Shouted "YES!" very loudly in the middle of pancake palace, when asked about the outburst he replied "I'm missing double Maths just now Mr R"



Steve C Before the contest: Can I get all of this in my mouth?
















And After




Well did I win

Masterclass Football has started at last










The training and games have started today - We had an early curfew, after our Quiz Night in the Hotel. This morning weary players arose to the sound of crisp frost being scraped from cars in the street, Definatly not sunglass and hat weather, however, everyone on form and biting at the bit to get a football at their feet.




Here are some photos from training.





I will attempt to get the team games results uploaded and site edited as quickly as possible.




It is getting harder to get the internet access each day, as wirless is protected and I am counting on places to give me permission to use their wireless signal and key password.








It is very rushed therefore if errors appear or specifically you want to see someone apear on the Blog, keep the comments coming. The Kids will be able to access the site on Thursday from Amsterdam after the tour of Ajax Stadium.



Gillian joins in, not for the skill aquisition, just for the heat!!!

I hope you are all very well back home, the kids are doing you and the school all Proud.












At this moment in time we would recomend them all back for a similar trip. "I would start saving now"!!!

The clogs are big over here



We watched the "CLOGS" being produced






Slow boat to football "all aboard"









Photo Time

Iternational Community relations are being forged after a random bloke with his 2 sisters asked us to have a photograph taken with them, some keen Tour volunteers with the tourists.

Some group photos for you to see




  1. I hope they have gained something out of this today as it was a fabulous experience for us and new cultural field to study.


A very well organised trip, I hope that the Pupils have many memories to take home with them.






Thanks For all comments folks I have saved them and published all, passed messages onto the Kids,"Thanks for all your help"


Please keep the comment coming leave messages for anyone you want to appear on the blog and I will attempt to catch them on camera,thanks again for all your support.
We will have a meeting Post Tour to give you a presentation and diary of all that has gone on, In the mean time I will keep the photos coming, Football starts tomorrow, therefore stricter curfews and meeting times are in place, all in Bed by 11 with lights out , we have a 2 hour masterclass training session in the morning 9am -11am hot lunch back at the hotel, evening games and night kick off under floodlight for the teams, with a packed dinner and late night back.
Photos of Today's activities are added, an interesting and educational visit to the windmill town, clog making and cheese factory, Diamond cutting was a special feeling, sorry A. Mr H seemed to miss this tour as the price started at 330 Euros just for a sniff at a diamond.


does anyone recognise these Players here

Another Day in Holland, photos galore from the day


Here's Wally, just a reminder that the Wally of the day on tour is voted for by the group for the most outrageous single or multiple activity of the day. This is intended as "fun" however will be replaced by the player of the day when the football starts.
This is worn at all meal times and in front of the group within the hotel, every time a member of the staff call where's wally, they stand up and say "here I am"
Yesterdays Wally says Hi folks, "I was a real wally in the theme park when all the rest of the group were waiting to depart the park on the coach, the park closing at this time, I stuffed as much money as I could in the dodgem cars and left Mr R outside waiting for me at the window looking in, as I whizzed round the track.
Not known to me that the doors were being locked and " I was the last one out"

Happy but soaked



Three wet teachers, but had a great time all the same.

RORY SAYS HI DAD

Theme park photos

Arrival at the front desk 11 euros for the whole day, not a bad value for money.
