📖🏆Proud moment! 🎉 I’ve officially completed the 'Early Years Professional Development Programme'! This 9 month training course covered key areas like communication and language, maths, and personal, social, and emotional development—vital foundations for those all-important early years.

It’s been a big commitment, giving up my Wednesday evenings and dedicating at least 2 extra hours a week to coursework, all in my own time, but it’s been so worth it. The children have loved exploring new ideas and fun activities, all while learning through play.

I’m so excited to continue supporting their growth with even more knowledge and inspiration!

🐣Easter holiday fun in the woods at our forest school! 🌳🌿
We whittled sticks and wrapped damper bread around them, baked in the fire🔥 and ate it 😋, made bird feeders with apples and seeds, relaxed in hammocks, used mud on the trees to make 'tree spirit' faces with natural resources. 🌳

‘Twas the night before Christmas
As the moon shone so bright,
All signs of the children
Were hidden from sight.
Away went the dolls house,
Away went the bricks,
Away went the train track,
Away the glue sticks.
Gone were the nappies,
Gone all the toys,
Gone snotty noses,
Gone went the noise.
Prams, high chairs, potties
Packed away in the shed,
As the house falls silent
And I go up to bed.
Thoughts fill my mind
And memories appear,
Of all the adventures
We’ve had through the year.
The learning and growing,
Adventures and fun.
The songs that we’ve sung,
All the crafts we have done.
The cuddles, the laughter,
The magic kiss better.
The school runs that couldn’t
Have been any wetter.
Some days were tiring,
Some made me smile,
Most days were hard work,
But all were worthwhile.
To see how these children
Are growing to be
The most amazing small people
I ever did see.
So here’s to a new year,
To all that’s ahead,
As a hush does descend
And I go up to bed.
May your Christmas be special
And full of delight.
Merry Christmas to all
And to all, a goodnight.
