Time to say farewell....

Flat Stanley has had a wonderful visit in England with our family.    It was so much fun sharing this adventure with him.   Flat Stanley was impressed by a lot of things he saw.  He particularly enjoyed riding on the London Eye, where he got a wonderful view of the city.   When we asked him what his absolute favorite thing was, can you guess what he said?    It was of course, being able to see the Royal Wedding.    He was even invited to join the Royal family for the official wedding picture.    See if you can spot Flat Stanley....

Flat Stanley visits primary school

Flat Stanley's visit wouldn't have been complete without visiting a primary school.  He went for a tour of Frimley Church of England school, which is Roshan's school.   It was built in 1868, but it has changed a lot since then.   Flat Stanley really liked their school uniform.  He was also very surprised to hear that children go to school from September to the 3rd week of July.  Fortunately, they have regular breaks throughout the year.   If you want to read about the school's history : http://www.frimley.surrey.sch.uk/Default.asp?page=15

Here are some photos of his visit.
