The waterways festival is at Moira on the detached section of the Ashby Canal - these boats are all trailable and arrived by road! The other picture is in France on the Canal des Vosges.

My understanding is that a half first cousin shares one rather than two grandparents with you. I think it would happen if your parent had half-siblings.

I found it helpful to talk with our PSHCE LA advisor (if you still have one), who put me in touch with another school to chat through the practicalities from a school viewpoint. In order for this to be positive for the child and their classmates planning is key.
