December Photo Project: St Nicholas

As usual the Tomten came to visit, but sadly not in their regular slot in front of a wood burning stove.  We all miss the burner and are saving the pennies to have another one installed at some point :-)

The St Nicholas treats were well received:

 Early bird Pip had hers made before Ben :-)

Pip should have been on a school visit to the zoo today but due to the bad weather it was cancelled.  Needless to say everyone was disappointed, but spirits were soon lifted when icon painting was the order of the day!  The usual maths and English lessons were given in the morning and then it was art in the afternoon.  The plan is to take a photo of the images and then convert them into cards to sell.  Pip has plans for her icon and that is to send it to Sr Emma in Spain.

Happy St Nicholas Day x
