Final preparations for this Saturday’s BIG EVENT at the Regent Arcade had to be put on hold this afternoon, as I had another school visit booked in. But the pupils at Steam Mills Primary were a joy to behold! I arrived there at lunchtime, amidst a great deal of noise in the school hall – and a great deal of melon on the hall floor.

I don’t really remember what my life was like before school visits. But I’m pretty sure it can’t have been anywhere near as much fun as it is now! Today, I spent the afternoon at Woodside Primary – a lovely little school tucked away in the heart of the Forest of Dean. And it was hard not to chuckle during the whole-school assembly when my narrator started getting heckled!

Dear Diary,

Today, I was at another marvellous middle school. That’s two in a row now… snap! From the moment I arrived at Abbey Park Middle School in Pershore this morning, there was a real buzz of excitement in the air.

Spending the day at Blackminster Middle School was a whole new experience, as it was my first time visiting a middle school.

Dear Diary,

I was on the road early today to ensure I made it to Tadpole Farm Primary in plenty of time. And from the minute I arrived there, it was all go!

Today, the sun shone almost as brightly as all the pupils during my school visit! Oak Hill Primary is a small village school.
