One of the classes at school used AI to turn themselves into cartoon superheroes as part of their work for Anti-Bullying Week, and the did me too!

Had a brilliant time at the #WorldSeries Watch Party in London and am now passing the time waiting for my train home by reading @keeganmatheson.bsky.social’s book in front of Big Ben and thinking he could write another chapter just on that Addison Barger grand slam. #WANTITALL

Thank you to CBC in Canada for this lovely little piece about how we are cheering on the @torontobluejays.bsky.social at school and the things we've done over the last few years to promote a love of the Jays and baseball here in the UK. #WANTITALL

Great to be invited onto Canadian radio to talk to Matt Green on CBC about introducing the @torontobluejays.bsky.social to the children at our UK primary school and what happens if you come in wearing a Yankees cap! #WANTITALL

Found out this week that Stefan Dennis is my wife’s cousin’s brother-in-law, so am now proudly claiming that we have a family member on Strictly and am cheering Cousin Stefan, Diane and #TeamAussie on all the way!

“ Give us this day our Springer Dingers… “ In assembly, the children celebrated the @torontobluejays.bsky.social winning the AL East ( as they predicted in March ) and offered up this Jays-themed postseason prayer to help them win the World Series. #WANTITALL

Very grateful to @teachertapp.bsky.social for making my blog one their Daily Reads. If you’re thinking of adding a specialist provision to your mainstream school, or want to know more about specialist units in general, I hope you find it useful. eattheheadshipfrog.wordpress.com/2025/08/08/o...

My parents were just sorting through a few things and found my old 7” single collection, including these absolute classics from one of my childhood ( and adulthood! ) favourites, the wondrous @kylieminogue.music-social.com ! I had a jeans patch with her on too - she’s amazing!

I know that many schools are considering their own #SEND provisions due to a lack of places elsewhere and so I have written this blog today to share our experience of having a Specialist Unit at our school in case it is of use. eattheheadshipfrog.wordpress.com/2025/08/08/o...

Lucy’s chemo starts next week and altogether her treatment will last for over a year so it’s important to catch the sunshine when you can, which we did tonight when her wigs arrived!

Well, this was quite the surprise! Not every day Fanatics arrange an out-of-the-blue visit to your school behind your back to give the children a new ( and definitely improved! ) uniform because they saw your @torontobluejays.bsky.social assembly! Look out for the full story on their socials.

Today is #OpeningDay, which called for a special assembly at school this morning all about the @torontobluejays.bsky.social wa! The children certainly know their stuff…

Daniel Woodrow @danielwoodrow.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

With #OpeningDay just around the corner, here’s a flashback to 5 years ago when the pandemic meant the ballparks were empty so we had our own Opening Day at school with our key worker children and the @torontobluejays.bsky.social walked it off against the Yankees!

Cannot recommend this book highly enough to all of my #edusky friends. As a memoir it is beautiful, but as a validation and celebration of the power and importance of literature and humanities it is absolutely essential. You can buy a signed copy here: www.foxlanebooks.co.uk/product-page...

Please support our school and Comic Relief if you can. The children have visited care homes, litter-picked, donated to food banks and charity shops and planted trees as well as having a second Christmas, a Hokey Cokey flashmob in town, ice cream for breakfast and more! So proud of them!
