Jessies 1st post


Kids Festival

Today Jack, mum and I went to a festival just down the road in a tiny village called Crettaz. They called it the Crette fete.

They hold the festival every 2 years and the theme this year was prehistoric. The whole village decorated their houses, gardens and streets.







We had loads of fun on the climbing wall, and on the tractor ride through the country side. We also won lots of prizes in the ‘guess what was in the buckets’…with our feet.


I got my face painted and Jack made a pair of stilts. We blew giant bubbles and ate the smallest ice creams we had ever seen.





It was a really fun day.

On Thursday we had our last day of school for the summer holidays. In the evening we had a parade down the main street of Leysin. All the children dressed up in costumes we had made at school. After the parade we had a huge shared dinner down at the ice rink. What an awesome way to finish off the school year.
