Scholars' Club

The Scholars' Club enjoyed a session on cryptic crosswords.

Mrs Germany introduced the Scholars to a whole new way of thinking about words and got them to dig far below the surface of seemingly nonsensical sentences.

The children loved the challenge of working out the clues with help from a crib sheet kindly provided by Mrs Germany. Their favourite clue was  'Murder two donkeys at home brewing tea'.

I am grateful to Mrs Germany for shedding some light on this challenging and interesting pastime.
