I couldn't help but cry along with you guys. To think how much the kids of the school will benefit from such kindness. I love those feel good moments! God Bless!
The Jonathan photo is beautiful and special. Your loving gesture to your mother goes deep!!! 🤗❤️💖🎶 I love how the community pulled together for Jonathan’s school. You certainly bought the right Chateau in the right town!!! The cheque event was so touching and made me cry. Such gratitude. You are wonderful people. You are HOME!!! 🤗❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇫🇷
She cried and I was so touched! I hope we get a chance to fund raise again for them. It show that many little hands together can make a big difference. And it will be wonderful for the kids to come and help plant trees and tour the chateaux and learn a little history. Also, to let them feel connected to their home area and look back someday and say to their own children, see that tree there at that big chateaux, I planted that many years ago and look how big it is now.
A lovely gesture donating towards helping Jonathan's school, it can't have been easy for him changing country, language etc but knowing that he has such an affectionate teacher will help put your mind at ease!! Smaller rural schools in my opinion have a totally different impact on children in a positive way. 🤗
Can I offer anyone else a tissue? Just beautiful. The Chateau de Lalacelle crew are truly a special group of people - hard working, kind, generous. Thank you for all you do!
what a wonderful community you have been welcomed into, you are an amazing family, Jonathan has some great role models, what a lovely speech in English too from his Teacher, not ashamed to admit a few tears watching this one 🙂xx loved the pictures and the stunning frames too x
The shot of the staircase is lovely with the glowing refreshed/restored wood panels, lights and art on the wall. Looking forward to seeing more details in this episode. It is great that the donations and the Carol Concert generated significant extra income for Jonathan's school. Keep up the great work on multiple fronts. A big thumbs up to all of Lalacelle's family.
I was so touched by your donation to the school. Small schools are wonderful but they have a hard time to survive in this world we have today. What you did was so wonderful.
The presentation of the cheque to the school, moved us to tears, all 4 of you are such genuine people.what a lovely way to say thank you to Jonathan’s school and the other pupils. You have done so much to integrate yourselves into French life, and from the reaction of the”professedly” told its’ own story too. Congratulations to you Terry for adding the finishing personal touches to the Tower, it all look fantastic. Roll on getting the kitchen fitted and completed…then as you say no more muddy boots on your part of the staircase and landing!!! Ash, your French is great, well done to you too! With love and best wishes from the UK
What a beautiful teacher and school that Jonathan attends. Her words were so touching and appreciative. No wonder you enjoy living in your slice of chateau heaven in this beautiful corner of France!
I’m not crying, you’re crying! To see how much it meant to the teaching staff of the small village school, was very moving for me. Congratulations to one and all for making a difference to the staff and students of this lovely school.
J'ai été très touché par le professeur, son discours en Anglais été très bien. Bravo madame le professeur pour votre dévouement à votre école. Que Dieu vous garde.
The teachers tears, your tears for the love of this special little school and how they welcomed Jonathan made my day. Bless all of you for sharing this lovely moment with us. xx
The school footage made me cry. Wonderful people make the world brighter and we all need that in these times. 💛. Merci to the kind people in the village and school.
I am so touched by your spirit and kindness. I teach at a Catholic school in Normandy and know how much parental help and community involvement means to a school. When I visited your chateau for the open house day last year, you really are a great family. Big hearts and 'downhome' people. Thank you for your vlogs and moments of happiness. Take care, Hannah G.
The pictures now hanging in the tower are so beautiful, adding your bit of history to the story of the Chataeu. The school staff were so grateful to recieve such a wonderful gift, they will make giid use if the miney I'm sure. Knowing Jonathan is happy and loves school, is worth its weight in gold as there is no stress with his ability to learn. Thank you all 💕🇦🇺
I am so glad this helps the lovely little school, and also I hope that it goes some way to re-assure your French neighbours that so many Brits are still friends to the French, longside all the other nationalities on here that helped. One world of kindness! Well done Chateau folk!
This is a lovely gesture to help your community whilst having just a little bit of work to do yourselves. Not everyone would do it. You all are a very special group of people.
Wow! Those frames, with metal corners, bring back old memories. I had a full-length mirror and 3 paintings, with the same frame. Thus, I'll say your taste is impeccable. LOL!!!
Greetings from Nova Scotia!🇨🇦. Your kindness, compassion and sense of family/ community always shines through in your videos. Johnathan’s journey in life is in very good hands. It certainly does take a village to raise a child! This video reinforces the importance of community.
What a wonderful school Principal and the school memories every child should have. Imagine if you have the next open house in Summer and the parents and friends of the school could have tented stalls. Or a marquee. If the prices are displayed in large sizes, we could arrange purchase and postage using credit card. Paula always seems super organised, and could pack and send items across the world. Something French and more money and a closer association between your viewers and a small school in France..
This was a truly beautiful video...the school...Terry framing a lovely picture of Jonathan for his Mum...adding some lovely pictures to the tower to make it more homely! Well done everyone! Have a beautiful rest of the week! Thank you so much for sharing, take really good care of each other, stay well! Lots of love Kathy x 💖
From the moment the teacher started talking I was in tears! What a heart warming video and it shows the power of generosity and love to effect change! Amazing job to you all! Thank you for sharing it!
So beautiful these tears. This reaction of the teacher makes you want to give even more. They are doing a great job with the children and Jonathan is very lucky to be part of this school. Just like you doing a fantastic job at the Chateau. Love to see that you are part of the community there. We are all united and help each other out. Great to see love in action ❤
The concert you did for the school was so lovely. Then the RUclips community who are your followers contributed also. What a wonderful community we have.
I’m getting divorced, and I’m sure that plays a roll in my tears, but that photo art you snuck into Moms place touched my heart so much! Love is such a beautiful thing.
Wow, this was great ! It was like a small version of the "Entente Cordiale" of 1904 between France and the U.K. It`s always nice to see different cultures helping each other out. Bravo tout le monde.
Part of the joy of watching your videos is the wonderful accents and hearing terms we just don't use in the US. When I have a job to do, I'm quite sure that I've never said that I'm going to go "get it sorted." But I find myself saying it now! Keep up the great work, and keep sharing your journey with all of us, it's a real joy.
How wonderful! My two boys were 9 and 11 when we came to France. It is wonderful what you have done for the local school, and wonderful how they have embraced Jonathan. It is not as easy as some people make out! Ash your French is really coming on in leaps and bounds, I hope you are suitably proud of yourself, well done! You are all brilliant!
Yes get back to work & no more loafing. Granted this was a year ago. It was extremely touching to see how emotional the teacher was to receive the huge donation. It will be a big boost for the school!
Bawling watching that. She was so overwhelmed. Would be lovely to see the teachers and kids all come to help build a little wooden playhouse or tree house in the grounds, hidden in the woods, or with planting. Well done guys x
I just love that pic of Johnathan, too, Tracy. That ceremony touched my heart. How wonderful for all of you. I know you will continue to support them. How wonderful.
Emotional, but beautifully done. I had no idea how much had been raised. That's huge for such a little school. Thanks so much for letting us be a part of that. Now to find an excuse for why I'm crying, so I don't upset my son. lol
This is what sincere gratitude looks like. Bless this teacher for the love of this school and the students, a humble, love.y lady. God bless her, her staff, and the school for being so welcoming to Jonathan.
How wonderful! It was so moving to watch the handover of the cheque. Jonathan must be so proud of you all. Very precious. What a loving, hardworking, beautiful family you are. As you sow, so shall you reap. Love and admiration. ❤
What a sweet school for Jonathon! I am happy that he likes it there! Congrats on being to support them, what a kind thing to do! I know how much my 2nd grader's teacher is always asking for things for the classroom from books to soap and tissues and decks of cards.
Ash, the pictures look so nice hanging in the tower. Tracy is going to love hers of Jonathon. How wonderful, you were able to get donations for Jonathon's school. The ceremony was so nice, You and your family are such beautiful people. Love from N.Y.
AAAwwww well the tears definitely showed how much the gift of money really meant to the school. That was so touching. No wonder Jonathan loves being there because that shows the school has heart. I owned a preschool so I know first hand what it means to be gifted money to make things happen for the children. Good job you guys!
That was a very emotional watch. They clearly appreciate your support so much in the same way that you must appreciate the brilliant way they have helped Jonathan adapt and settle in a new country with a new language. Bravo to you all 🥰
I’m so pleased you value Johnathans education in such a hands on way! My career was in a Catholic school system. So pleased you support the values of a small school education. The tower is gorgeous! Keep on “cracking”.
Love, love, love the new(?) logo! Very swanky! 😁 ... Now that I've watched the whole video and seen this teacher come to tears and say that donations to a Catholic school are unusual I'm so sad. God bless this school, staff and the precious little lives they teach & love.
Loved this video, how grateful the school is to have some funding ... hope it's an annual event to raise funds for school each year .. perhaps we can find out if they need school supplies and start sending and at the end of year .. deliver with the check xx 😘 Education is the future
This was a wonderful video. The third floor stairwell shines now and is very personal with Terry's pictures . My children also went to a Catholic school and money is always tight. It was so emotional. It was a gracious gesture to host the Christmas fundraiser and to be a part of it too with followers contributing too. It is nice to see how much Ash is improving his French over time too and can be such an asset for outreach to the community.
Such a heartwarming episode. From the beautiful photos on the panels to the heartfelt appreciation of the teacher. Not only have you endeared the RUclips community, you are also endeared by your local town. Bless you guys ❤️😘🌻🇦🇺
What a precious and touching reaction from the teacher. It's beautiful that you're not just restoring the chateau but also integrating so generously into the Lalacelle community. As always, thanks for sharing your journey with us!
Hi everyone, I was in tears today,watching you Ash,presenting the cheque to Jonathan’s school teacher 😢 she genuinely was overwhelmed,with the families kind generosity 👏 The parents at my Grandson’s primary school, do lots of fundraising ,throughout the year ! The Parents have dress up parties at the school ,their around to have food ,alcohol & DJ ! they have so much fun ,while grandparents look after the children! 14:40 Love the picture frames Terry ! Did your Mum notice you’d put up her favourite photo of Jonathan? Take care lots of love 🥰💕
Hi All, Adding the photos of the chateau to the tower is the finishing touch that it needed. The presentation of the money from your fundraiser for the school is a wonderful contribution to promote the efforts of the teachers, and staff that the school employs and education. To know that Jonathan has such a committed learning environment is more than a young child could ask for. I know that he has a great foundation from his education that he will carry with him for the rest of his life. I love watching your vlog and the transformations you have made to the Chateau. Mark
Terry those frames are wonderful. So glad you put in pictures of the Chateau and family really lovely. And the one you framed of Jonathan for your Mum is adorable she’ll be Chuffed! The donation was so wonderful through you guys it wouldn’t have happened very wonderful jester and the school so appreciated it ❤
Superbe geste qui donne une grande émotion dans cette école ainsi que dans ce petit village, bravo vous êtes des personnes fantastiques dans le travail et dans le coeur 😍
Great episode!!! There is more joy in giving than there is in receiving and you just proved that!! Big Time!!! The paneling is looking fantastic!! You resurrected it from the dried out dead to a new life and the pictures and the frames are a beautiful match and tell a sweet story! Well Done!!🤩🤩
The view of the third floor that we could see is exquisite. The job that you and your helpers have done is as good as it gets. I imagine like the rest of the folks, we are all anxiously awaiting that tower project done top to bottom. Keep up the good work.
Nice to see the additions in the intro under each name in the family of chateau dreamers. You're all more, and do more, than can be captured in a single descriptor.
Thank you for showing us the tears of a teacher. She loves all the kids in the school. I think Johnathan is very proud of his family.
Thank you so much!
I couldn't help but cry along with you guys. To think how much the kids of the school will benefit from such kindness. I love those feel good moments! God Bless!
We were all crying again too Arazehl :)
I also cried...❤
It was genuinely moving wasn't it.
The Jonathan photo is beautiful and special. Your loving gesture to your mother goes deep!!! 🤗❤️💖🎶 I love how the community pulled together for Jonathan’s school. You certainly bought the right Chateau in the right town!!! The cheque event was so touching and made me cry. Such gratitude. You are wonderful people. You are HOME!!! 🤗❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇫🇷
We absolutely are Kerry-Lynn! Home is where the heart is, and Lalacelle has ours hearts!
Well said and ditto!
Let’s make this an annual giving event for the school! We were thrilled to donate on behalf of Jonathan.
Fantastic idea!!
Thank you so much, what a great idea 🥰
She cried and I was so touched! I hope we get a chance to fund raise again for them. It show that many little hands together can make a big difference. And it will be wonderful for the kids to come and help plant trees and tour the chateaux and learn a little history. Also, to let them feel connected to their home area and look back someday and say to their own children, see that tree there at that big chateaux, I planted that many years ago and look how big it is now.
Thank you so much, yes we hope to do another this year to help the school ❤️
Please make it an annual event. ❤
That's a lovely idea, getting the school children to feel more entwined with the local Chateau!
What a lovely school! The teacher is so sweet and passionate about her job, it's great to see that.
She really is Susanne :)
Now thousands of people know about your little school and the wonderful way it educates children. May you thrive for many years to come.
Thank you ☺️

I love how your family and viewers are helping this little school. I was a teacher for years and every bit helps. Thank you ❤️
Thank you 😊
Tellement heureuse pour Jonathan qu'il soit heureux en France. Bravo pour votre français, c'est impressionnant.
Well that made me cry too. Teachers are just unsung heroes all over the world! What would we do without them?!?
We completely agree with you 🙏🥰🥰
I was so touched by your donation to the school. Small schools are wonderful but they have a hard time to survive in this world we have today. What you did was so wonderful.
So true, and every bit helps them 🥰🥰
I don't know these people but I'm finding myself with tears in my eye's! Well done you guy's, you are a great addition to the community.
Haha. Thank you :) 😊
What a great family! You deserve a huge thank you from everyone! You're a joy to know, even from a distance.

What a beautiful moment.
Your family validated that woman’s entire career and her dedication to the children of your community, well done !

I know that he has a great foundation from his education that he will carry with him for the rest of his life. I love watching your vlog and the transformations you have made to the Chateau. Mark

Superbe geste qui donne une grande émotion dans cette école ainsi que dans ce petit village, bravo vous êtes des personnes fantastiques dans le travail et dans le coeur 😍
🙏❤️❤️
Great episode!!! There is more joy in giving than there is in receiving and you just proved that!! Big Time!!! The paneling is looking fantastic!! You resurrected it from the dried out dead to a new life and the pictures and the frames are a beautiful match and tell a sweet story! Well Done!!🤩🤩
Thank you so so much 🙏🥰🥰
Like that you have a workshop with a bench… hope it is insulated, ventilated, and cooled or heated 😊
It’s great that we have the space but no heating just yet 🥶❤️❤️
The view of the third floor that we could see is exquisite. The job that you and your helpers have done is as good as it gets. I imagine like the rest of the folks, we are all anxiously awaiting that tower project done top to bottom. Keep up the good work.
Thank you, yes we can not wait for the day when the full tower is restored 😍😍😍
Guys I love those frames.
Thank you, it worked out well ❤️
Nice to see the additions in the intro under each name in the family of chateau dreamers. You're all more, and do more, than can be captured in a single descriptor.
Thank you very much 🙏❤️
