MrsBellaCullen: Someone has taken my lovely ammo box and left a cider bottle in its place, mashing the hiding place in the process- so unfortunately this is gone 😞

Geocache Description:

The cache is located just outside the village, slightly off the main footpath, but you do not need to cross any fences.I've given this a difficulty rating of 2 because tree cover at the cache may cause a bit of a problem.

The co-ordinates above are for the local school, which I attended, not the cache! You need to find the school’s telephone number (not the dialing code) and use it to find the co-ordinates to the cache.

School days are meant to be the happiest days of your life, but spare a thought for us teachers slaving over a hot report pad.

In the opening chapter of Matilda by Roald Dahl, he describes how parents sometimes think that their child’s achievements are at the level of genius. Dahl, puzzled by such “twaddle”, counsels teachers to resort to foul play when writing reports. He suggests teachers write that a child with limited ability is “a total washout”. (I wish!)

Most teachers try to find the best in every child they teach, but not all of us rise to that challenge. Here are some real reports written about famous people…

“Certainly on the road to failure … hopeless … rather a clown in class … wasting other pupils’ time” – John Lennon

“Is a constant trouble to everybody and is always in some scrape or other. He cannot be trusted to behave himself anywhere. He has no ambition…” – Winston Churchill

“He seems incapable of organising his thoughts on paper!” – Roald Dahl

In the cache, you will find comments from one of my reports – please add some of your own on the blank forms, to provide me with inspiration for the future…
