Did you enter lock down optimistic about all this spare time you had at home? Did you plan to learn a new language? Organise your house? Learn a new skill? For one student, the national lockdown was seen as an opportunity to embrace new skills. Awesome work! @ShirelandCA

@jowilliams293 But we are in - our amazing team have been in every day - from the first week of lockdown and every day in the Easter holiday volunteering to look after key workers children. Please don’t insult the courage they have shown every time they stepped inside the school gates #COVID19

@KSunray3 @KirstyGrundySTP @PhilMcCahillSTP @BobCox_SFE That sounds super! Mr Fletcher will pick it up on Friday to deliver with the visors.

[Shireland Design @ShirelandDesign]

@KSunray3 @KirstyGrundySTP @KSunray3 Could this happen tomorrow, Friday or Monday? We are delivering the last order of PPE to the QE on Tuesday. A card for the hospital staff would be wonderful!
