Well i'm off on holiday today and I will miss you all. We keep a narrowboat in France and i'm off to another pace of liFe - very very slow. I shall have withdrawal symptoms for the first few days but no doubt there will be hundreds of posts to read when I get back.

Hi all A friend sent me this and as mine are not teenagers yet thought I'd share it with those of you who might have one A father passing by his son's bedroom was astonished to see the bed was nicely made and everything was picked up.

Hi Everyone, After Finishing Harry Potter yesterday which marked the official start to my holiday (funny to see that I am not the only one judging by one of the other topics here!) I would like to say the world's biggest 'THANK YOU' to all of the support that I have received from you guys over the past year. I am happy to say have completed my NQT year - and although it has been an interesting year (no co-ordinator , HT off long term sick, working along side 2 unqualified teachers, and with a SMT who could perhaps have some traning in FS ) I have learnt so much!!!

Hi I'm looking for ideas to raise money for 'CLIC Sargent' - Caring for children with cancer, titled Yummy Mummy Week. Does anyone have any great ideas? Have just raised £1,600 by toddling so wanted to do something a little different. The event is to be held 16th-25th September, but as I'm away all Summer need to get some ideas together now. Was thinking along the lines of it not being just for nursery parents but also for friends too. Any help, ideas would be appreciated. Thanks Gem

2 of our 3 duck eggs hatched over the weekend. There has been such excitment in reception class today. My daughter had the good sense to do a bit of fliming of the 'hatch' so the children have watched it on my whiteboard this morning. Then the ducklings were presented 'ta da' Isnt nature wonderful? We are keeping them for a week before they are returned to the farm.
