2011 Calendar


This year we decided that it might be a good idea to make a calendar so we asked all our children to prepare a drawing. When they arrived after the summer Annabel Overbury, an artist and art teacher, agreed to be our jury and she had the difficult task of choosing 13 drawings, one for each month and another for the cover. The aim was to choose a drawing from each age group so that they would all be represented. We are quite pleased with the result and sales have been quite brisk, so we would like to thank all those who have supported the children's artistic efforts. The only negative aspect was the cost of posting the calendars as almost half were sent abroad, so next year we shall have to choose a more lightweight format. In any case the children are delighted that their work has been "published in Europe". Thank you for supporting us!
