> Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. We take our lead on the lessons from Michael, our teacher, who is very relaxed about teaching pupils to do things they are not confident about or just plain don't want to do, if you make it fun and they enjoy it then it suddenly doesn't seem so frightening. It was obvious to me that as the guys had not been wet in clothes before, they were apprehensive about jumping in fully clothed (simply jumping in seemed unnatural to them in the first place) so I took them outside in the rain, bit of a no-brainer really. Also seeing me getting soaked as well in my jeans and shirt and not minding, just made it easier to follow suit.

> We play sports a couple of afternoons a week as part of our regular timetable as well as having swimming sessions after school for the swim-team and occasional football matches on a Saturday morning. Jamie and me have a swim every week day morning at home as well of course (along with Harry and Mike most days) and we definitely feel better and fitter for doing so, I guess you get addicted, and it is more fun than just doing gym weights and exercises.

> Our dads are constantly surprised at the freedoms and attitudes from teachers that we enjoy compared to what their own schools were like back in the day. Having been home-schooled whilst in the US I have nothing to really compare it with, but it does seem a lot more liberal than I had expected at first.
