I went with Ingrid and Hans to a few internet cafes to try and do some blogging. We had a bit of bother but you can now see some photos and a wee movie on their Basisschool De Rank Weblog We should have some more photos on the Sandaig and De Ranks blogs tomorrow, (or the next day if we are too busy having fun).

We are on our spring holiday at the moment. In the summer term I am going to ask my class (they do not know yet) to carry out a homework project on one of 3 countries, The Netherlands, France or China. I hope you can help with answers to some of our questions on The Netherlands. We are on our spring holiday at the moment.

We would like to thank all the children we met for working so hard and giving us a warm welcome. We will see you in May in Sandaig. Have a great holiday this week and we hope to hear from you when you get back to school.

I've put a picture of what we saw in Holland below, the quality was good. The Dutch children had a bit of difficulty with the Glasgow accent. I think our podcast will be the first one by a Dutch school, certainly the first in Dutch and English, it should be published at the weekend.
