Hi-de-ho Peeps! A few things to tell you; Firstly, Prom/leavers day is looming... I'm very excited for all you leavers, just be prepared. If you haven't done so already, pre-book any taxis and hired stuff now and plan your day with getting ready time, how you're getting home (or where you're sleeping if you live [...]
Helloooooooooooooooo Friday Peeps! Most year 11 pupils will finish school today. The last mainstream GCSEs are today, there are a few specialist ones like Further Maths next week, but most finish today. I just want to show some love for all the exam-takers, teachers and parents who've survived the last month or so. Well done [...]
Howdy Peeps! Apparently it's summer... (Not that you can tell outside) so for toddler group I was looking for some summer inspiration. I found the website Happiness is Homemade and found some cute crafts, including little plastic cup pineapples. You can paint the outside of cups yellow but I actually found some yellow ones in [...]
Helloooooooooo Friday Peeps! If you have survived SATs this week, (including parents and teachers) congratulations! It's all over now! 🙂 The fun can begin and transition to secondary school can happen. Enjoy it! For those out there that teach, homeschool or just want to help your child along a bit, I found an awesome [...]
Howdy Peeps! I just want to say Good Luck to all the SATs and GCSE takers today. SATs go on for 4 days and GCSEs for about a month, so if you know any pupils that have exams, please be extra nice to them while this happens. (If you're the parent of an exam-taker, please [...]
Howdy Peeps! GCSEs have begun! Practical and Oral exams are in progress and the first written exams are only 3-4 weeks away (depending on which options were taken). The good news is that it's not too late to revise. I will be focussing on last-minute revision but the methods can be used by year 10 [...]
Howdy Tuesday Peeps! Do you have a child in Year 2 or 6? Do you know one, teach one, run a club that includes these year groups?? Go easy on them. This week (or in the weeks to come) many of them will face the stress and exhaustion that comes with mock exams. For many [...]
Howdy Peeps! Happy St David's day to any Welsh peeps reading this. 🌾🐲🐉 1st March is an important day for anyone with children moving up schools. Today is the day to see if your little one got their first choice school. If you didn't get the school you expected, don't panic. You can appeal the [...]
Helloooo Saturday Peeps! I had a lovely long chat with my daughter last night (seriously, it was like 1am!). She's trying to organise her life because she has a lot more going on now. So I thought I'd share with y'all what we talked about regarding time management for students. Prioritise: What's most important? What [...]
G'day Friday Peeps! It's hard not to turn into the pushy, over-competitive Mum. Especially when it comes to learning because that's my thing. My daughter is currently in the middle of Mid-Term exams (and is largely unimpressed with the whole thing, like every other pupil I've spoken to!). I have been reminding her to study [...]
