Hello Perse Girls!

It was such fun going "back to school" on Monday and meeting some of you that I thought I'd post you a message!

Wow, the new dining room and hall are amazing! I love the ceiling that changes colour. Things have certainly changed a bit in the nearly 20 years since I completed my time at the Perse. What's still the same, though, is the enthusiasm and energy of the girls. Thanks so much to all of you who took time out from your muffins and conversations to look at my display! It was great to hear from you what it's like to be a Perse Girl in 2008, and to have the chance to tell you a bit about me and my project.

I hope you've had time to read the leaflets about the charities I'm supporting. But don't worry if you haven't, or if you didn't take any leaflets; there are links to their webpages on the sidebar (just below the "welcome" paragraph). If you have a look at them, I'm sure you will be able to find out everything that you'd like to know about the charities!

Thanks again for letting me introduce my project to you. I hope that you find it interesting, and that you'll be able to follow my blog over the next five months. It makes a big difference to have your support! I hope also that I'll have another chance nearer the "big days" to visit you, so that I can meet more of you, and so that you can find out exactly how my preparations and fundraising are going! Until then, keep smiling...
