Home from Perthshire

Today's walk went well; the weather was mainly dry although spells of sunshine alternated with hailstones and a chilly breeze. I was sorry that the pupils didn't see Rotmell Loch at its heatwave best - maybe next time. The pupils all did really well but were visibly tired after their second day of walking. Again the views up the valley were beautiful and we saw three deer moving through the woods on the way down the hill. We got back to school in good time. Ally had his first A Level today, in History, and he felt that there was one question which was just right for him and one question that was more tricky. As I write this blog I'm looking out through the French windows at the garden which is bathed in evening sunlight. Before we had the extension built we could only see the garden properly if we were actually in it, and I think that the big windows have made me appreciate it more.
