Our Trip

Hello everyone.
We have had a lovely holiday but now it is back to work.

We started the term with a trip to the sewage works - this is the place where everything that is poured down the kitchen sink or flushed down the toilet, has to go. The water is cleaned before it is put back into the rivers.

We had a great time.






Here are some photographs of our trip.
















This is the water as it arrives. It is really dirty and
smelly.




This is a machine that squeezes the liquid out of the waste - it really smells.

















We had to wear special jackets because this is a real sewage works and there are lorries around.
















This is Mark - he took us round and explained everything to us.

















Eventually the water is clean enough to go back into the river.



















We hope you enjoyed looking at our photographs. We will add more soon.

Bye!

(This is one of the experiments we did in the afternoon of our trip!)

During the winter holiday

Hello, dear friends from England!!!
We're Natalie Belyakova (in black) and Victoria Baidachenko (in white). Though we are still having our winter holiday we are at school now. We're arranging our Teddy Bear paper diary and you can see it in one of these pictures. In the other picture we're at the New Year tree here at school. In fact during our Christmas party we had a very large and beautiful green Christmas tree. We had a lot of fun!!!
Our classes will begin on January, 14.
Have a nice time! Write us soon, please!
Your friends from Russia.

Happy Christmas

Hello from all of us here at Heron primary school. Thank you for your photos and letting us know what our teddy has been doing. We have some rules in England that we have to stick to when we use the Internet in school. One of them is that we cannot put our names beside our photographs. It is a difficult rule because we would like to introduce ourselves in the same way as you have. Unfortunately we are not allowed to.

Thursday is our last day at school before Christmas and we wish you all a Happy Christmas and a healthy and prosperous New year. If we can we will add a short video in the next day or two.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS

This is a short video from our school play. It is a little dark to see. We will make new ones tomorrow when we perform it again.

Teddy Bear and Oksana

Hi, dear friends from England!
My name is Oksana, my surname is Orlova. I am 13 years old. This year I became Mrs. Chernova’s student. I live with my parents and a cat. I love my family and my cat very much. I love sports very much too. I play basketball and volleyball. In winter I love to play snowballs with my friends. I love to celebrate Christmas and New Year. In the picture you can see that we became friends with Ted!
Best wishes from Oksana.

Teddy Bear and Vova

Hello, my friends from Abbeydale!
My name is Vova Kuzmin. The Teddy Bear has visited my family. I live with my parents and my cat. I love my family. My parents were glad to meet Ted. We had a good time all together in the evening! During the day Ted and me went shopping, did my home work, watched TV, played some computer games and read books. This picture is of me and Ted. I’m doing my homework and Ted is helping me! He is very good at English!
We give our regards to all of you.
Vova Kuzmin.

Teddy Bear and Maria

Hi, dear friends from England!
We like to work in the blog. It’s me, your Ted the bear. Last week I visited Maria Habarova’s flat. Masha lives with her parents and her elder sister Kate. We took many pictures, had tea, watched TV, played the computer, and then went to bed. In the picture you can see me and Maria. We are standing at the balcony. You see, it’s real winter here. Next week I’m going to visit other children and their families. Russian students sent their Christmas cards to all of you a couple of weeks ago. Have you got them yet? Now they are looking forward to receiving Christmas cards from England and are very excited with this fact.
Your bear Ted and Masha Habarova.
