Thoroughly enjoyed hearing @Andriazaf interviewed by @meifung100 at @hayfestival this afternoon. Moving to hear teachers' & school leaders' work and impact celebrated - how rarely this is done authentically in the public sphere! Inspiring & refreshing π β at Hay-on-Wye, Wales
There is no feeling like your first class leaving at the end of Year 6. Full of pride at the wonderful people they've become and who I know they'll go on to be πβ€οΈ
We are feeling nostalgic this morning & have dug out some old photos of our wonderful Year 6s for their last day. We are so proud of how far each and every one of you has come & know you will all go onto great things!

Thank you so much to the parents for organising this - cannot to see everyone back at school on Monday π₯°
The biggest thank you to the Friends of the Free School & parents for organising 'Teacher Treat Week'. Every surprise has been so thoughtful, from the curry to the mugs to the wonderful messages to Daisy the goat, & we're all very grateful. We can't wait to see you all on Monday!
Got a lot of time for the school frog πΈ
Forest School is always full of surprises... look who Year 1 found in the Wild Space this morning - 'We found a frog and named him Fred!' πΈ #outdoorlearning

Another insightful session from @ojukomiller today who posed many challenging, thought-provoking questions. One that really resonated with me: whose culture do we give capital?
βHow do we create opportunities to give agency to our learners so that they do not have to leave themselves at the door?β Thank you @ojukomiller for challenging us & @HabsHTGFS to consider how to co-create an inclusive curriculum with our students
An amazing achievement for Claire and for our school. I am so proud to work at a school which teaches German to such a high standard π©πͺππ₯³ #primarylanguages

βI have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colo(u)r of their skin but by the content of their character.β Year 6 read than watched the #martinlutherking speech today. Inspirational to us all.
So pleased we now have a weekly outdoor learning slot worked into our timetables so we can make the most of our @TreesforCities #EdiblePlayground and #ForestSchool space. Nothing better than seeing children enjoy learning in nature π±π»π¬οΈβοΈ
Then we went into the garden and picked our tomatoes...the beds are now ready for new seeds. #greenthumb #sustainable #gardening #outdoorlearning

Highly recommend the @serial podcast #NiceWhiteParents - an investigation into the segregation & gentrification of NY public schools. Food for thought for all teachers working in any school striving to serve the needs of all their pupils.
