Cricket pracitces leading up to the annual SAC events This year will be at Cambridge and Markham. Good chance of doing well.

Another brilliant museum

Great day out teaching the students about nature just on the edge of the city. The pantanos, or marshes are just to the south of LIma and are becoming so encroached upon that one wonders if they will last the decade. This is a migratory spot for hundreds of thousands of birds who migrate throguh the Americas and rest here and feed up before heading off. Some actually summer here and some here live all year round. It is a beautiful place to visit. About 20% of the students had never been before and they have driven past it for seven years. But they loved it. They went on a nature treasure hunt, bird watching with Geraint Langford and had to look through the swamp for hidden clues to fill in a crossword as well as write down reasons for mans encroachment into the area. Education at its best.
