Our father sadly lost his battle with cancer this last summer, and my sisters and I have decided to fundraise in his memory for the excellent end-of-life care he received at home. We shell be taking part in the famed 'Lyme Lunge' on New Year's Day—an ice-cold dip in the Jurassic Coast sea whilst wearing fancy dress 🥶 Anything you can give would be massively appreciated, but if you can't, that's totally cool (pun intended) as well 🙂 Retweets and such are also fab. (I'm not entirely sure what costume I shall be wearing yet, so ideas in that department are more than welcome 😅) justgiving.com/page/claire-f…

In early childhood art should be about the process of creating and experimenting and not the end product.

The Princess of Wales has called for more to be done to recognise the importance of EY. “There are fantastic examples of what can be achieved when we recognise the unique potential of early childhood & build a safe & loving world around a child. But not enough is being done..."

If we want EYs to be taken seriously it must start from within. There are so many of us fragmented, on our own crusades, cliques. We need to put differences aside as we all want the same thing. EYs to be about the children. I have reached out to so many. Will you?

My student Jess is researching how EY practitioners use technology safely with young children in the #earlyyears. If you use digital tech and work with young children, please can you spare 5-10 minutes and complete the survey? Thank you tinyurl.com/2akbhzd4 #EYFS #eytalking
