School days – shoes, spelling and harvest festival
Bit of a late one on the School Days post this week. It’s been my birthday weekend, and let’s just say 2 late nights means not a lot of blogging has been going on. School this week has been a…

School Days – measuring in maths

Tips for a first flight for kids, and what’s available for kids in Birmingham airport ahead of a trip to Jersey in the Channel Islands
School days – reading, writing and arithmatic
