School issues

As usual for the fourth Wednesday of the month, we have a school theme this week. But it's not just everyday schools we are interested in. One of our letters is about another kind of study, for non school subjects.

It is not always easy to fit these activities in with the demands of school and homework but the people who take music, drama, art and all the different sports subjects prove you can really enjoy it.

They also benefit from a great social life and gain talents that can be just as valuable as exam passes.

What else do you do?

Do you help out at animal sanctuaries go to scouts, brownie guides or cadets, belong to an interesting organisation or help with a local charity? Write and tell us about it so we can prove, as you do, that the more we do the more we find time to do!

Thinking of summer

It's not very far away and now is the time to start making plans. So we have a fantastic summer camp competition for you to enter. It's the first of its kind so enter soon and you could be lucky!

See you next week.
