News from Jacqueline & Alice Caunt in Bath
To all at the Scots Kirk
Apologies for our radio silence I just cannot believe that it will be 3 years in June
since we left…
Life in England is thrilling
and certainly an adventure but it lacks one
thing: a fantastic church. Although we attend
church at school it is nowhere near as warm
and welcoming as the Scots Kirk. I am
currently studying for A levels — History,
Philosophy and English Literature, all of which
I am enjoying and particularly how each
subject is interlinked. My extra-curricular
activities include singing in the school choir,
mentoring a younger pupil and working
towards my D of E Gold. I am looking forward
to the expedition part which will see me
scaling the highest point in England this
summer - Scafell Pike. I have had good
practice scaling even higher peaks in
Switzerland. I do miss you all.
We are thoroughly enjoying life in dear old Blighty. We
both love being at Prior Park College in Bath and fully appreciate our Georgian
surroundings and I can easily imagine myself as a Jane Austen heroine
(Elisabeth Bennet being my first choice). We have the most delightful commute
to school each day walking through National Trust woodland, although we had
to invest in some good wellies, and the only traffic jam is caused by a hedgehog
crossing our path. We do miss our Scots Kirk family and would love to see you
if ever you are in the Bath area and we hope to visit Switzerland again at some
point.
