   What happened? My teacher's pet Llandudno's Craig y Don, who sometimes hits the 1,700 human page reads a day has collapsed to just 79!

I can only guess that as the school is on holidays, that those that come, have been and read and aren't coming back till there's more to read?

Maybe there was a local outage in Llandudno—some road diggers cut some cables? Something on TV that drew visitors away from the net?

Mind, it was a low day anyway, yesterday, across all sites. Strange.

Can I be on TV too?
Rough Hay are going to be on TV!!!! They're having the local news at their opening of their new garden. I tell them to video them videoing you. Then we'll put the video on their site (via You Tube).

Good to see a school take so well to their blog.

More writing examples
Croft's Matt shows us more of his children's writing. This time poetry! Illustrated poetry at that. These bloggings from schools are getting better and better. And I'm spending more and more time reading this stuff :-)

If it's all holding my attention... Thgen it's got to be holding parents/friends/children's attention too. As can be seen with the rising traffic when new stuff is posted.

Radio Grangefield history
A fantastic and I mean wonderfully fantastic history of Grangefield Radio. A school radio station from up near Leeds. I really hadn't realised that there was so much put into this, nor how long it had been going. Black and white pictures add that Discovery Channel look to the post :-)

Excellent.

This is what school blogging is all about!
