Hello everyone and welcome to the Journal Gang page.

The end of the summer holidays is in sight and next week many of you will be going back to school.

I expect you’re looking forward to seeing your school friends again and telling them all about the exciting things you’ve been doing over the holidays.

I know that some of you will be moving on to new schools and I’m sure you’ll soon settle in.

We start this week by saying well done to Orion Ling who was one of the winners in the New Forest Show competition.

Orion loved the show and particularly enjoyed meeting the donkeys and horses as he would like to be a jockey.

Here’s a picture of Orion and his family taken at the show.

This week we’re finding out about the delicious treats cooked up by children at the opening of a new restaurant in Salisbury and you could win fantastic arts and crafts sets in our Gang competition.

See you next week.

Jill
