School visit this morning at the fab Hartland International School Libraries in Dubai as part of EmiratesLitFest & just look at the wall they made in preparation of my event! 😍😍😍

Incredible excitement in 6N today watching the live launch of the SpaceX NASA launch with MBR Space Centre! Good luck Sultan AlNeyadi - you have inspired some budding astronauts in Hartland Intl School 👩‍🚀 🚀

A great experience for all the students!

I promised a P2 Pupil I would tweet KATY PERRY so she could hopefully see that this Pupil loves her and would want her to be her celebrity teacher. So I’m hopeful KATY PERRY could make her day.

A lovely experience for the girls - they really put the “international” in International Women’s Day! 🌎 👧 💪🏼 💜

Tensions were high at our annual Formula Ethara event - teams designed, engineered and built their cars, as well as creating a portfolio for their brand! 🏎️🏁

These were the 25 most excited students in Dubai today! Over the last few weeks, they have deigned and 3D printed their own cookie cutters, and today they got to make the cookies - all thanks to their incredible DT teacher, Mr Miller. And they even saved some for me 🥰🌟 🍪

Seven 25kg suitcases, one 17 year old cat, six years abroad, three schools, two countries, and one fiancée later - home!
