Another fabulous day at the 15th Edinburgh Network Conference, always so great to be around others who are as passionate about early years as myself! @froebeltrust.bsky.social @lintonlass.bsky.social

I did something totally out of my comfort zone on Sunday - I joined a group walk in my town. It was such a wonderful experience that I might do it again.

I loved finding my people when I joined the Froebel community, this week I was so fortunate to spend a day at the incredible sites at Guildford Nursery School where the whole ethos just oozes Froebel’s Principles.

When I began my fitness journey 22 months ago I could never have envisaged the difference it would make to my life, at 56 I am the healthiest I have ever been & more importantly I have a proper understanding of nutrition.

This week was all about finding shade & this is when it becomes so obvious that planting trees in school grounds should be compulsory. Bear Woods provided such a cool space to play in & enjoy some ice pops.

Look at this for progress - the children now have 5 drawings but the biggest difference is definitely from Sept to now with this little one.

We got a lovely new stepped seating area in Bear Woods, this week we had our class photo taken up here & I can’t wait to see it. I foresee lots of fun times & conversations on these steps.

So fortunate to have this peaceful walk on my doorstep. I may even have run part of the way inspired by watching the London marathon!! 😱

Adding a table to the block corner created all sorts of creativity to the play.

On World Maths day these two created ‘a big circle’ and ‘a big rectangle’ in nursery every day is all about maths, it’s everywhere in their play.

Visited a lovely new coffee spot in Coalisland today but the service is way too slow to justify going back sadly.
