@FABS_Events@bellbirdprimary Are you planning to host another event like the one above this summer? If so, I’d love to attend it with a children’s book stall & a craft activity, if possible. I’m an author from Sawston. 😀
@JodieA91 @jmatschools @WathVictoria That makes me so happy to read! So glad you and the children enjoyed the books! Thank you for posting about the books and tagging me. You truly made my day. 🙂♥️

⚡️Zelensky: 'We will do everything to one day host Eurovision in a Ukrainian Mariupol.'
The president thanked Kalush Orchestra for its performance at Eurovision 2022 and all who voted for Ukraine.
"I'm sure our victorious chord in the battle with the enemy is not far off."
⚡️Reuters: Large convoy of evacuees from Mariupol reaches Zaporizhzhia safely.
Petro Andriushchenko, aide to Mariupol’s mayor, earlier said the convoy contained between 500 to 1,000 cars, the largest single evacuation from the city since Russia’s full-scale invasion began.

At the end of President Niinistö's state visit to Sweden on May 17-18, Finland and Sweden are likely to make a joint declaration about their intentions to join NATO.
Next the two parliaments need to make the necessary decisions (with a huge majority in both countries).
Finland's President Sauli Niinisto & Prime Minister Sanna Marin announced their intentions to join NATO today. The application process should occur “without delay” within the “next few days.”
Sweden is likely to make the same declaration on May 15.
