It has been a while since there has been much to report and a while since there has been any time to do any reporting. A lot of us have been leading a search for The Lost Land of Play in the mythical kingdom of Sharpoom with many many young folk from the Torbay area. This has been an excellent adventure characterised at the end of a day's questing by a girl announcing that she had discovered that her imagination was enough for her to play and she did not have to buy things. Made us happy!!

On a smaller scale we have been closing up the documentation of a year long project on learning in the Dartmouth learning Community that ended with 36 children running a training day for all the teaching staff that they poignantly named "In Our Shoes". For those there with the will to look beyond, there was some great stuff to be had from the young leaders on how they learn.
Last week we ran a one day Transition event at Dartmouth Community College where the new intake were cast as anthropological researchers into the new school. They had some great findings and the set-up of the whole day resulted in a really sound mixing up of old friends and new friends.
In the interim we are still hoping to put on some events in the old Moveable Feast tradition run by artists for artists about our art as workshop leaders. The flame is a little thinner but it is still burning. Olympiad stuff!
