Have also sent photos of some of the art work we did, related to recycling and caring for our environment, using our lunch rubbish to decorate pictures and creating a collage of Duffy the turtle (from the book you gave us) out of plastic. Hope you can access them ok and thank you so much for lending us all the bits and for the leaflets and wipes which we have been handing out too.

How, like her family, we miss her, and how wonderful are our memories of Dinah ...
