End of the first week back to school, so how did your little one do? I hope the mini professor enjoy school?
How are you doing parents?

It’s another milestone for me as this is the last photo I get with both my girls in uniform🥺
Thank you to Prof M’s Mum for already sharing her lovely photo ❤️🥰

If you would like to share your first day photos with me please feel free to comment or message me. I would love to know how the children are doing 👏👏😘.

Thinking of you all ❤️ Prof Loraine

And in the blink of an eye another school year comes to an end. Another milestone ticked ✅ and it always makes me feel sad but grateful too.

This year I waved an early goodbye to the mini professors but it doesn’t mean I haven’t been thinking of you and wondering how you are all doing. In fact I have bumped into a couple of the grown ups and children recently, and it was wonderful to see you. 👋🥰

Many of the mini professors will be going to big school this time and I wish you all the very best and lots of happy times at school for the next academic year.
I know you will be awesome 😎

If you don’t mind - I would love to see your school pics if you are happy to message and share with me.

Prof Loraine sends big love and hugs to everyone who attended in the past.
Have a fantastic summer and whatever class year you are in September be curious, ask questions,❓learn lots, 🙋‍♀️and dream big 💡💥

Hope you are all enjoying a lovely Easter. I have made the most of good weather to get the garden tidied and ready for planting.
What have you been doing? Lx

With Easter right around the corner, remember that plastic Easter basket grass (left) lasts forever in the environment, often ending up in bird's nests and our waterways. Opt for the crinkled paper version (right). It eventually biodegrades and is much safer. Or even better, make your own re-purposed paper Easter grass so you can skip the plastic packaging all together! 🐰🐣🌱

Aw I missed you guys today. 👋
Just looking over some recent photos and some happy times was nice but it’s not like the real thing. Friday’s just not the same. I miss you all but hope you had a good day and enjoy a lovely Easter holiday. ❤️

👋 I missed you all today mini professors.
Thursday morning will never be the same 😔
I hope you had a good day whatever you were doing ❤️

And just like that 5+ years of fun with the preschoolers and their grown ups comes to a sad end but hopefully one full of happy memories and inspiration for us all.

From Rainhill this morning, I’ve just finished a birthday party this evening and so Mini Professors definitely finishes on a high 🤩

Huge thanks and love to everyone for all your support, your lovely gifts, kind words, understanding and hugs - it’s been so hard to say goodbye. I am really going to miss you ❤️ and I wish all the children a happy start to school and brilliant future ⭐️

‼️If you have any photos you would like to share then I would love to see them. I’ll put a little collage together of happy times and graduations. Message or WhatsApp I don’t mind

Special thanks also to Martin Rainford Scout Group and Ray and Joan at St Ann’s Millennium Centre for looking after me and my business in their great venues. I wish you well for the future 😊

Keep in touch. I’ll still be here and I’ll check in every so often to see how you are

It’s been a blast 🧪 💥- well I had to say that - it’s a science class 😁

Keep singing the science song and take care
Love to all
Loraine ❤️😘

Wow such an emotional day. 😢 Saying goodbye to the mini professors and their grown ups is the week I have been dreading. I didn’t sleep much last night as I knew it was the last class and I won’t see you as usual next week.
I can’t thank you enough for all your support, your very kind gifts and your words brought me to tears again at home reading your cards.

I’ve never thought of myself as a ‘visionary woman’, but I’m flattered ( thank you Jane) ❤️ all I wanted to do was help and support families in the local community and the Wow Group AND the venues I used have provided a great opportunity for me to do that. The Wow Children’s programmes brought so much joy to parents and children but also to myself. There is no better feeling of going home after a busy and often tiring day but feeling like ‘ I did something good today’.

Baby sensory was very special but Mini Professors held a special place in my heart. Helping to inspire children -our future, to learn about their world and help settle them towards school, no other job will ever give me the satisfaction and joy of hearing young children say ‘wow’ so enthusiastically, their little faces light up and squeal with joy because of what they have just experienced or enjoyed doing. I’m going to miss you all SO much. Thursday and Friday will never be the same again and that makes me sad because I know what the kids will miss out on and they may not even realise it yet.❤️

It’s been the hardest decision to not renew the MP franchise at this moment, but I understand that these are not normal times. Every penny is squeezed and that unfortunately affects children indirectly. For that I am angry. Let’s hope things improve for everyone as I would love to see you all again in the future and you may see me pop into Baby Sensory and Toddler Sense as Regional coordinator.
Support small business were you can.

But let’s enjoy the memories, the photos, and no doubt the little things the children will say in the future about what they learned at Mini Professors and above all let’s keep in touch.
I want to know how the children are doing please and to the grown ups a MASSIVE thank you for trusting me through all the years and becoming friends along this journey. You are all amazing parents and carers and classes wouldn’t have been the same without you seeing the benefits and enjoying it together with your children. Quality time indeed❤️

I’ll miss you all but here is to all our future fantastic women and men scientists, leaders, doctors, nurses, consultants, developers, engineers, tech specialists, teachers and all round STEM professionals 💕

Go on, be visionary and be awesome and inspiring in your own way ⭐️

Lots of love Prof Loraine xx😘❤️

Our clever mini professors were mini palaeontologists for dinosaur week. Digging for bones and making their own fossil art was fun, we found out how big dinosaurs were and long a diplodocus was - amazing 🤩

Thank you so much to everyone for coming along this week. Next week for sadly 🥹the last ever mini Professors it’s 🌋 volcanoes week!

Have a great weekend ❤️ Prof Loraine x
