Happy Halloween! Halloween doesn’t have to be all sugary treats. Here’s some cool lunch ideas. Satsumas, cheese, veggies can be drawn on or carved into freaky shapes and you can even do “bloody finger sandwiches” using jam #HalloweenEve #halloweenlunches

Just discovered a fantastic new app https://t.co/ydRnvYXjQU It's a way to create a 'family' facebook or similar..ie you can share photos/videos/ news just with the family or with close friends that you might not want to share with the whole world. Check it out!

Sometimes we can’t get time off in the hols to spend with our kids. That’s where hol progs are good. Choosing the right program keeps all happy & ensures kids aren’t left feeling “dumped”. Ask your child what they like & allow them to help choose so everyone’s happy.

Following yesterday’s school holiday chart idea, here are the kids planning their A-Z of things to do this school hols. Varies from F for Fortnite (of course!) to V for exploring volcanoes!

1st day of school holidays. How are you going with your planning? Make the first activity a school holiday activity list with the kids. Go to the $2 shop, get paints, paper and get them to create their own with the activities they want to do. Here’s an example for inspiration

Should Primary School Teachers strike again?? Me thinks anyone who holds our children’s future in their hands deserves big rewards!

Lice. I was appalled to hear someone in my daughters class had them. YUK! I thought. How dirty- until I discovered it was my daughter! if you’ve got them, it’s not to do with cleanliness. Millions get them. They’re harmless but need treated so visit your local pharmacy
