When we found out that we where moving to Garve. I was really exited but Claire was a bit sad.
Everybody was sad but I wasnt sad. I was happy when we were at the house. I got really exited.
When we moved to Garve all of us were happy. We were outside in the snow.
The school in Garve is really nice. I did miss Carbost school because I miss all my friends and the teachers.

I found out before Christmas and I was a wee bit sad.So were my friends Ciorstan and Lorna they were crying. I moved up here on the 29th of January. I was in the lorry with my dad and my cat and my four chickens. It took two hours in the lorry to get there.
I was really bored in the lorry. We stopped in Broadford for a bacon roll and a hot chocolate.I was a little bit scared to come to this school but it is really fun. It took one hour to take the stuff out of the lorry.
My new teacher is very fun and she is called Miss Divers. I have made great friends here. My old teacher is called Mrs Niclson.It took twenty minutes to put my bunk bed in my room. We had to go all the way to Inverness to get Lucys bed. Our living room is really big.

I can see people walking slowly with water,
I can see green trees blowing smoothly in the wind,
I can see buckets over flowing with water,
I can see sand so soft as it rubs gently through your feet.
I can hear a dog howling in the hot african sun,
I can hear buckets bashing quickly together,
I can hear little children playing and laughing,
I can hear the water splashing as it hits the bottom of the bucket.
I can smell the dust as it swoops into my face,
I can smell flowers whistlling quietly in the wind,
I can smell animals getting hot,
I can smell bread that childeren eat,
I can touch the water slipping mysteriously through my hands,
I can touch the warm sand,
I can touch the water barrel cold with lots of water,
I can touch skirts that are so silky.
I can taste water cool and refreshing as it goes into my mouth,
I can taste dirt flying in to my mouth,
I can taste food as if its right in front of me,
I can taste the proudness as my family get this water.

For those of you who are wondering how Santa got on…
Heute ist Samstag, der 24. Dezember.
Der Weihnachtsmann steht nicht auf.
Er hat viel zu viel Angst.
“Rudolf”, sagt er, “wie ist das Wetter heute? Regnet es? Ist es sonnig? Ist es nebelig? Ist es windig?”
“Nein!” sagt Rudolf. “Es schneit. Und wie!”
Und der Weihnachtsmann und sein Helfer gehen an die Arbeit.
So Santa got snow, and so did we! I won’t be back at Strathgarve Primary until February due to a teaching placement. Hope you all have a great Christmas and that 2010 is all you want it to be.
Chris
