Somehow, we have made it to the end of the second last week of term!  I worried how these past two weeks would go preparing work at home, checking our Team and clearing our class and making ready for whatever August may bring and home schooling my own boys.  It seemed like there was too much to do and too little time but…what I failed to remember is that it always feels this way and it always all gets done in the end!  I also forgot that you are all working away brilliantly using our Team and being patient if you’ve had to wait for an answer.  Plus, I have had the help of Mrs Henderson, John, Jackie B, Jackie J and our support staff team helping me.  Huge thanks to you all!  We are all nearly there!  Keep going!  Keep smiling!  😊

This week, teachers have been allowed back into school to clear work off walls and sort classrooms to make ready for August.  It felt very strange to be back for the first time since 13th of March!  We’ve all been through a lot since then, having to learn and work from home and get used to new routines and new ways of working.  I was struck by our last classroom quote that was chosen and written up by Lois way back it March.  It seems even more apt now.

On our Teams page, we regularly post up our, “How are you feeling?” Poll.  We notice that the responses given vary each time we do it.  As we’ve said before, each day is different.  How we feel each day and how we respond to what’s going on around us changes too.  It’s important to recognise that there are hard days…bad days…but within each day, perhaps just before settling down at night, try to think of one or two positives from your day.  They will be there…some days you just have to look harder.  🙂
