We returned to school after our two-week Christmas holiday exactly two weeks ago today, but in fact we've had more days off school than days in class! Heavy snowfall meant our school was not open for several days. Our school is at the top of a steep hill and the snow made the roads impossible to drive on so most of the teachers couldn't get to work as very few of them actually live in the same town as the school. However, our pupils weren't complaining! This amount of snow is unusual here so they had great fun sledging, building igloos and making snowmen!
