Search Owlbut's Website:

Hi, I'm Owlbut! Welcome to my Fun World of Learning!

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.

27 December 2024. Our December education podcast is here. My apologies as it was supposed to be uploaded on Christmas Eve but I have suffered four power cuts in four days over the festive period and that played havoc with both editing and uploading. Better late then never.

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 weekly 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 (Support) and the various ways you an get in touch with us (Get In Touch).
