Well I have been busy lately even though I did lose one of my favourite jobs for the time being, St Patricks. the old funding story!!!!!!!

However ‘ a door closes and another opens’, it allowed me to do the animation with Vannessa daws see her blog      http://no72.wordpress.com/author/vanessadaws/           

I cannot get any video to upload due to useless broadband connection! The drawback to living in a beauty spot.

I also had a planning meeting with the School of the Holy Spirit last week through the Butler Gallery and that starts next week. It is so exciting they have this amazing sensory gardens so one we will do hopefully is make butterflies to live in it, probably in this honeycomb shaped tent that they have! Oh I cannot wait.

WE will have 12 hours contact time in total  so after next week we will need to pin it down to make sure we have something to show at the end. I am happy to be pure process but children need something to show at the end to cement the experiences in their minds and to allow parents and others to see what they have done.

The idea is that week one is an introductory session where we make something nice and in the process we all get to know each other and get an idea of what we can do. We are going to batik cotton bags from Aldi probably with a butterfly theme. I am getting a feeling of something to do with the garden, I hope to put some shots up of it if I can get them off my phone!
