Thinking of all the families I worked with when I taught in Aldershot between 2010-2014. Most of the Dads were on active service in #Afghanistan , making every sacrifice you could imagine. Mums holding it all together at home. Kids wondering when it would end. ❤️
Julie Hunter I was HoY in 5 and 6 and many times we were the child's 6th or 7th school. They missed their dads so much and the mums had so much to deal with. The fear of what was happening in Afghan was awful for them.
@CStewartSHS Julie Hunter The wonderful charity Little Troopers has loads of resources for schools to use in all key stages, as well as well-being resources, aimed at supporting service children (and their schools) with all the challenges and features of their lives. Most are free or very low cost.
