Monday was a much looked forwards visit to Knebworth House for a writing event. Although initially we hadnt planned bb to do much writing, she did and really loved it. they all got to look around the house and then end up in the library to think about creative writing. it started with an ‘it was a adark and stormy night’ . The rainedrops, manor borns and fishes were there too. SO after the morning of a tour and a creative writing ghost story challenge, then they got to play outside. There was a fantastic water play area so they all got pretty wet! Wonderful day, so thanks to M for organising it so far in advance.
Tuesday was bookish in the morning and then chemistry in the afternoon. I’m not exactly sure what they were doing, but it certainly looked very pretty when i got home!
Weds will get its own blog post, as it is our typical home ed day 2014 
Thursday was a clarinet and oboe lesson for the girls, and then multisports. Our friend B took the kids in for sports with her own, and then they all went to the water park afterwards – yes more water! – as DH was putting up our tent for Kentwell. B will stay in it the first week, and we will the second, so lots of tent for little effort . The usual guides and scouts in the evening as well.
Friday was a great day into London, they had a bus tour ride, a boat ride along the river Thames, visited the sights – trafalgar square, tower bridge etc and I was hoping DH or one of the girls might blog it, since I wasn’t there!
