The next 50! Walk 19 – 03/12/2021

A walk from home today and one that I had done before at the beginning of my original challenge.

This walk was delayed twice but eventually Becky (my ex assistant head and co head – one day a week) managed to coordinate a time for a walk. We walked a route we had done together before but last time it was with me limping !

So along the track to ‘not conker alley‘ and round through Lockinge, passed the church and out behind Ardington House.

We took the longer way back into Ardington so that we could stop at the shop and cafe. Hot chocolate with extra cream and marshmallows seemed appropriate for the day!

We took the route up to the stones, something I hadn’t previously managed with Becky. We’d been talking so much I realised I’d not taken any photos.

The stones are really difficult to capture ! As we came back down the hill on the wide track in the woods the sky started looking interesting.

Nearly home – great walk, great chat. So easy to solve so many issues with education when you are out for a walk! One day the DfE will catch up with our thoughts and stop failing children!! Until then more walks to be done.
