Hello from Mr. Robinson

While all can read this it is written more for elementary students than normal, so as they say in England, have a go!
Hello all of you Ox Bow Eagles, I am writing to you from jolly old England. England is the country that used to “own” America, but then the Revolutionary War happened and in 1776 the USA was formed separate from England. As a result you don’t drink tea all the time, drive on the other side of the road, wear trousers and jumpers or have a funny accent like my English friendsJ My wife Rebecca and I are in Oxford, a city famous for learning, writing, church steeples and it is where Harry Potter movies have been filmed. It is really pretty here, you can look at the pictures when finished reading. We are studying the Bible, learning more about Jesus, the church and how to work with people better. We live with two young ladies from Derby their names are Jazz (short for Jaskiran) and Rachel, they are both lovely and a lot of fun to live with. We only go to school for 3 and a half hours per day, and only 4 days per week, but we have quite a bit more homework than you do! Each day we walk to school, our walk is about 35 minutes long, and then home it is uphill and is about 45 minutes, we are tired once we reach our flat (British for apartment). There is no football, baseball or basketball on TV here, just soccer, it is the most loved sport in this country, so I am missing watching Purdue, Florida State and what is that school from South Bend, is it Notre Dame? I trust that you are having a great school year, learning a ton, and having a wonderful time while learning and pushing yourself hard. Read all that you can, write creatively, sing beautifully and don’t settle for less than your personal best. For now cheers,
Mr. Robinson
