Hi Kirstine. I have sent a few messages regarding some training I have purchased, but have received no response. Someone has read the initial messages, but has not responded. I bought some phonics training off yourself and wanted to go back over it as a refresher, however when I click on the link it tells me the page isn't available due it being unsafe. I have tried using my phone, tablet and computer but get the same response. I would really like to be able to re watch it. I have enclosed a photo of what happens when I click on the link and can send a photo to prove I have paid for the training. I hope someone can assist in getting this sorted. Many thanks.
Very busy week decanting and relocating the nursery at Banchory Primary school in preparation for building work. Absolutely amazing team created a fab temporary nursery in school!
SHE’S BACK !!!!!!!!!!!! 🥳🥳
Back at the beginning of March you will have seen my post about having to take some time off from work and from social media.
Little did I know in the midst of all the personal issues I was dealing with that the world would deal us another blow - thank you COVID 19 !
As well as being a consultant, author, university lecturer and business owner I was and still am a single mother to a teenager with autism. We were dealing with extreme anxiety and I had to make some priority decisions . My son was and will always be my priority and do I took time to be there when he needed me to hold his hand through an ever increasingly scary situation unfolding.
Well 4 months on and we are both doing much better 😃 we have found our new normal and are thoroughly enjoying our adventures together 😃
And so I am happy to say that I am back at work “but not as we know it Jim!” I have decided to build on a part of my business that will allow me to continue to be there for my son whilst sharing my passion for child centred, play based learning in early years and beyond.
Over the summer I will be launching a new range of affordable early years books packed to the gills with practical ideas and photos 😃.
So it with excited, baited breath that I return to the Early years fold 😃
Watch this space 🤞🤞
Oh and you never know you might still see me training one day - maybe 😜
