As another school year draws to a close, Margaret and I would like to give a special mention to all of our education colleagues who are retiring, and to all those who are leaving the profession for other reasons.
Thank you for your dedicated service! ❤
This one's for you...

Do you remember when it was quite normal for children to go home from school for their lunch? (Some teachers would go home too!)
A short walk or bike ride, lunch with a parent or two and maybe even a bit of TV before the afternoon session.
