End of Wk 1 of 3rd year as HT. For me, I can't imagine not caring about the staff, children & families in my school community... but making sure the busy-ness of school life doesn't get in the way of showing that care sometimes needs to be more of a conscious choice. Happy w/e 🥂

A new school year begins tomorrow. A new year brings new opportunities, a chance to refocus & to set new directions. It's exciting, but also daunting. There will be challenges as well as successes. But it will be ok, more than ok, I hope! I hope it will be OK for you too 👌🏻

Lovely 6.8k walk to find some beautiful elephants! @wildinart @thameshospice #trunksacrossthethames

Only just discovered it is #NationalGriefAwarenessDay A reminder that grief takes many forms, is not always related to the loss of a person (or animal), has no defined timeline and can look and feel different at different times. Be kind to yourself ❤️

Impulsive purchase at Camden Market turned into a little project. Frames for our vision and values. Lettering finished today. Last task - to attack my office wall with picture hooks and a hammer. What could possibly go wrong?!

Day 44 of #4for44 - well, a day 43 & 44 combo. First rainy parkrun in yonks, some jigsaw progress, values frames completed, work on our Inset. Thanks so much @DeputyGrocott for organising - love seeing everyone's pics. Have a great term everyone 🥂

Day 42 of #4for44 A day in school setting up our new SEN & small group space and rehomed a fluffy flamingo... plus a dash into town as it's phone upgrade time.

Great few days in Copenhagen - beautiful city with lots to see and do.
