'About 800, or almost a fifth, of the UK’s libraries have closed since 2010, while national spend on libraries has dropped by more than 25%'. Vital places- doing so much more than providing books theguardian.com/news/article/2…

Our wee ones progressing to P1 have been creating a What Matters To Me book to take with them. The books are individual to each child & include pictures alongside their own artwork. Our wee ones will bring these books home in the summer holidays & they can add to them at home. 😀

Had an amazing day with elmcroftnursery this week. Was so nice to just talk about trees, share some resources, and hopefully spark an interest in not just walking by trees next time the staff see them. We identified 14 tree species and about a dozen wildflowers as well. #buzzing

I am overwhelmed with the beautiful responses I have received. Each comment is special to me! Thank you so much for your kindness! I've had the privilege of working alongside wonderful colleagues from whom I have learned so much. Here's to the future - stronger together 🎉🩷
