the new job is in full swing! Some may Not notice much difference but one thing that has increased is my schools involvements.
This week is the first week back post Easter hols and it's been a strange one this year as schools broke up over 2 weeks before Easter Sunday . So, this week I've been into nursery and reception classes in Wainscott school and then had year 1 from Cedar school (all 90 of them at once!) visit St Francis church ! It's been a lovely week continuing to share the 🐣 Easter excitement with the children , share the story of the first Easter and hear all about the amazing Easter eggs many of them received !!
One real sweet moment was when a little girl from reception shouted out as I walked in...that's Sue I know her and she came to mY birthday party (my boys were in fact invited to said joint party 🎉) very sweet though indeed!
Amidst the tiredness of the amazing Holy Week it has been a real joy to get to know these kids a bit more... I don't ever regret stopping being a primary school teacher.....but I do miss school life A lot !

The Greatest Season
the last few weeks have been really strange.. I had my licensing on the 30th of March which was the most amazing afternoon ever...I've been to many of these occasions but this was the first I actually was able to plan myself And it was everything I'd hoped it would be, I was also really touched by those people who came especially when it's not necessarily there thing.
Then the next day Dan finished school for the Easter holidays, 2 weeks before Easter itself.
We made the decision to go away before Holy Week as we were in desperate need of a break, as. A mark of moving from one job to another, and to enable Daniel a visit to his much loved Espana!
But now we sit at the cusp of Easter...it's been a really busy week...memories of holidays faded somewhat but the anticipation of tomorrow firmly at the forefront of our hearts and minds...
I actually LOVE Easter much more really than Christmas...in fact I get a bit frustrated that we don't spend or give Easter as much attention as we do the C word. For Easter is where it's at... Easter is about new life, new hope about the greatest gift ever given, the most amazing story ever told.
The world feels to be in a bit of a mess at the moment, somewhat lost but Easter gives us the hope of a better life .
Whatever your thoughts and views, whether you'll indulge in chocolate and bunnies or avoid it altogether may tomorrow bring you peace.
