| I was invited to visit the Drestar Sports School and speak with the children. It was really nice to be involved with youngsters again, I do feel lost these days. Anyway here is report in the local paper OOPS! they have me down as British born but now matter.

The English-born Bernadette Legett was visiting the athletes The students from the Drastar Sports School - Silistra welcomed a dear guest - Bernadette Legett of Great Britain, who was invited in English lessons by Senior Teacher Kina Marinova, under the project "Your Time". For several years, the teacher has been trying to provoke the interest of his students by inviting English, American, Canadian, and even Australian classes. Conversations are always very lively, and they take place at the extraordinary interest on both sides. Children ask questions and receive detailed, sometimes very surprising answers. Bernadette Leget was natural, extremely positive, fresh and very sweet. This pleased the students and helped the conversation flow freely and casually as between friends. Mrs. Legett said that he found the Bulgarians very good and kind people and so far has not happened to get a denial of something. For ten years, she has been helping children in Silistra and beyond, and once a year she has sent 40 tons of aid collected by her friends in the Cambridge area. Bernadette Legett praised sports students as saying that compared to their peers in the UK who are madly attracted to computers and telephones, they are interesting and sociable, curious and good manners. The children gave her a 2018 calendar with the 10 best athletes of the school for 2017, and the 7th grader Dimitar Dimitrov surprised her with a very special drawing |
