Hey everybody!
What we have forgotten to inform you about:
Yesterday we visited the Children`s Information Service (CIS) in Southampton. Andrea, the senior information officer, told us about the organisation.
The CIS was set up by the Southampton City Council and offers a lot of brochures and booklets, but also consultation for pregnant women and parents.
If you have any questions on childcare, spare time activities for children, family support or any other kind of questions to these matters, go straight to the CIS! ;)
It was quite interesting, that parents in England have several possiblities for childcare....much more than we have in Austria. But as our project topic is not about childcare, the visit was unfortunately not that helpful, but nevertheless interesting.
One or two pictures from Sabine will follow soon!
And as Johny Cash already said: "We`ll meet again, don`t know where, don`t know when" ;)
Take care!
Marlene

What I found most interesting about the visit was the fact that maternity leave in England is only 9 months (in Austria it`s 2,5 years I`ve been told)! That`s probably why there are so many different possibilities for having your child looked after.
Quiz time again:
1. When is there a comma before "that"?
2. How do you write "two and a half" in figures (numbers)?
3. When do you use "many" and when do you use "much"?
This is reallly good, but what did you do in class???
