Little Bell

Image
This little bell was once tied around a Lindt golden foil wrapped chocolate bunny mainly bought around Easter time but is available all year round. Their Christmas version is a baby fawn with an iconic Christmas bell tied around it’s neck.

My little Book of Science

Image
We three Alan, Hugo and Nelly have been calibrating together on our Science book. The first page is all about the fossil/gemstone Amber... however that’s all we’ve done so far but it includes the life cycle of amber. Often children start something with all the enthusiasm in the world. However once they start they soon realise what a huge undertaking it is. In this instance writing a book!  

Basic maths

Image
Norty Alice has decided not to turn up for her designated lunch time maths catch up. What’s beyond the looking glass of school work is worth skiving off from in Alice’s point of view.

Missing pear

Hello I’m here come and find me! Abandoned because the other glove can’t be found or the cute transfer is starting to peel off.   

Happy New Year

Image
I found this piece of paper outside a school dates today. Christmas is over and it’s now start of a new term. Here you can witness first hand the very early signs of a juniors handling of basic maths. When you need more fingers then draw circles instead. All before gaining the skills of working out the answers in your head; but if you have a calculator then – that’s cheating!

Plastic toys

These two were found together outside the local library. Interestingly they are both the same colour.   

On the look out

Image
This miniature soldier is looking through the window with binoculars poised; he’s probably been wounded as there is a stain of I suspect blood on him so he’s probably looking for help. Was that the aim of the student who placed him there as it was found in the grounds of a college; maybe he’s part of a student project.  

Drug packet

Image
Found another one of these cute little packets but what’s inside is not so attractive. It has the potential of turning you into a monster if it contains a drug like ketamine?  

Happy Birthday!

Image
A personal special day announcement. Most likely the school have a ready supply of these to give to the children on their birthdays. I wonder if they go so far as supplying a birthday treat at some point during the day such as a little cup cake adorned with a little lit candle for them to blow out. Further still such as some fee paying establishment a party would be laid on but at this state run school like these along this road it’s going a bit far unless you have a generous parent and teacher association that puts money aside for such occasions.
