My site has a section giving info about every country in the world (The World), lets you read a complete history of England (Times Past), takes you on a virtual journey through the counties of England (English Counties), invites you to do and share with others a set of projects (Your Turn – you can see the hours of thinking that went into this titling process), and has a fun part for you to enjoy (Fun Things). We also have a brand new section called Owlbut's School of the Air which you really must check out. If you want to find info about anything on my site, there's a search bar just above this.
3 May 2024. It's another Friday blog, this time written by Molly. As our programme for Friday is titled, "Walking with Molly" it seems logical that she will tell you all about it. Remember no Owlbutcast next week as it is a Bank Holiday Monday.
29 April 2024. We follow-up last week's Owlbutcast about migrants. We also have an advert about Owlbutcast. Really.
26 April 2024. In the 1960s we had a programme on TV on a Friday called "Ready, Steady, Go". It featured all the music of the time. It's by-line was "The weekend starts here". I've uploaded this week's Friday blog at 9.00am so you can start your weekend really early. Don't blame me though if you get the sack. The blog is all about our Thursday programme for our School of the Air.
22 April 2024. An incredibly topical Owlbutcast which we only decided to do 20 minutes before we recorded it. If anyone said it shows, OK but it is topical and, we think, important.
19 April 2024. It's another Friday blog and we're looking at Wednesday's programme for our School of the Air. More academic this time and looking, alternately, at History and Geography but all in a fun, exciting, hands-on way.
15 April 2024. Owlbutcast looks at the origins of the fighting in the Middle East.
12 April 2024. We trust your Easter break is going along nicely. Weather's not been too bad, just the odd storm and plague of locusts. This week our Friday blog looks at Tuesday's programme for our School of the Air. A nice, relaxing day with Molly, a book and the little den she built. She sings while she's working, did you know?
9 April 2024. Early April and it's time for another Education podcast. This time Molly and Richard make a forceful point for a complete change in how we educate our children.
5 April 2024. We hope you had a good Easter. We did. The blog is back, now reduced in frequency to a Friday but no reduction in quality or information. We begin to tell you more details about the School of the Air but make no mention of why Molly had to help Richard up from his position of lying in the mud on Good Friday.
This bottom set of banners, which only appear on the front page, are more explanatory for adults. Once again we have titled them brilliantly as there is a page where we will upload a daily blog (called The Blog), a page which children might like to read telling you about us and also the background to the whole idea (called About Us and The Background), some info about the site as of now and our future plans (called Our Site Now and Our Future Plans - no surprises so far), our views on education (Education), our sponsors and supporters (Partners) and the various ways you an get in touch with us (Get In Touch).
