Almost here…..


November 25th, 2009

I received a phone call from Mr Nyasulu this morning at around 5.30 to tell me that the party was about to board their flight for London, and as I write this (at 3.15pm) they will probably making their descent into London Heathrow.

Many pupils, parents and teachers are planning to be at Edinburgh Airport this evening to give them a warm welcome. 

Finally, they will be in school tomorrow, but may still be very tired after their long journey.  Please give them a warm, smiley welcome but also give them space to find their way in what will be a daunting but I’m sure enjoyable and exciting first day in Scotland.

You may even wish to greet them in Tonga – their local language – by saying

Timonene!

and say goodbye to them by saying

Paweme!
