Advent Calendar 2007 draws in visitors from around the World

Latest News - Sat, 2008-01-05 20:17

The traditional Online Advent Calendar managed and run by Stepping Stones School each year has been another big success, attracting the World's attention from people in almost 30 different countries.

Although this wasn't the first year we have run an Advent Calendar, look back to Advent in 2006, it is the first time that we have taken contributions from school children (and a Scout Troop!) in countries including New Zealand, Little Cayman, Scotland and England. We are developing a community around the work we are doing which, apart from the delights of getting into the Christmas-y spirit, is as much about sharing pupils digital creativity online with others.

The long list of entries in the Advent Calendar guestbook reflects such a small percentage of people who have been enjoying our festive offering this year!

Well done to all the youngsters who contributed work towards the calendar.

Happy New Year to you all, and we look forward to hearing from you with suggestions for the 2008 Advent Calendar!
