I recently got to write a review of the incredible new collection by Holly McNish. You can find it on my blog lenabellina.wordpress.com/2025/08/15/a... And then go and find the poems and see for yourself how amazing they are….

The start of a poem I wrote back in 2021 for Easter. At that point I was determined that I wouldn’t let other people’s opinions get to me as much as they had…. The subsequent years have seen me make limited progress…. But all progress is important. lenabellina.wordpress.com/2021/04/03/w...

1/3 If I had to tell you the most important thing about surviving peri/menopause at school it's not to be alone. Talk about what's going on for you. Find others in the same situation. Support each other. #Edusky #EduskyUK #WomenEd

“Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome.” Brené Brown There’s bravery in showing up as we are, without guarantees - just the openness to connect. 🧡 #kindness #love (Picture by Katie Abey)

Shout out to everyone who dares to live with their heart wide open even when living this way will mean sometimes you will get hurt

If you can do something about it, do it. But if you can’t, let it go and move on

Love in the classroom. Students deserve that. They carry that love into the future - because their biology has been changed by it.

From the days when I was looking after Care Experienced children and writing about professional love in education. You can still find the article on the TES website. www.tes.com/magazine/tea... One inaccuracy…. I no longer tweet, or use X, as there isn’t a lot of love over there any more.

Do you feel the love in your classroom?
