Thank you teacher gift ideas . . .
Everyone has differing opinions when it comes to giving thank you gifts at the end of a school year for their teachers/TA’s/keyworkers etc. Some think presents should be made by the children for a more ‘personal’ touch (or as a repayment for all the lovely junk models we get sent home throughout the year), some […]

Summer Holidays 2013 – Day 5

Now why can’t school start at 9.30am too, I work so much better for having that little extra time in the morning!! Perhaps I […]
