I haven't tried it yet- as I'm currently in the middle sending all the letters out to our returners too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froglet Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) Zigzag - wonderful news, you really made me smile. Sunnyday - what a great message. I have had a great few days. I’ve been spending time up at mum and dad’s with my sister’s children and it’s been lovely - nothing special just chatting, playing games and going for walks to the park but they have and are continuing to grow into such nice people, it’s a real pleasure to spend time with them. I popped briefly into school this morning and figured out a classroom layout that I think will work which is a big weight off my mind. Now home for more knitting on sock number 4 and watching something gentle on TV! PS I don’t know if it’s the same for everyone but I think we’re on our 100th page of Fridays!

sunnyday Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 I came across notes from our staff meeting held 13th March that I hadn't got round to typing up - little did we know then that we would be closed on the following Friday and in my case would remain closed for six months...... Sent over loads of info to my deputy and asked how she was feeling now about our return - she said "I have small feelings of trepidation" 🤦♀️ well, we all do, but I really need positivity now - my fault for asking I suppose I have purchased some really lovely washable 'playmats' that have arrived today - hmm when I say washable, I mean they can be wiped over.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseketeer Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I am pleased we made it back for the 2nd half term but I’m sure you’ll be fine once there (even after 6 months, it’ll be like you never left).......I know what you mean about needing your deputy to just bolster you occasionally ...I do feel like it’s been an un-holiday of so many decisions to make alone 😞 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Six months off, and I just got ridiculously excited we we now have an extra day off at the beginning of new term 🤣🤣🤣 We were going back on the 2nd- with children starting back 7th. I just got a call from the scouts asking if they could use the hall during the day on 2nd (small group adult training event- not a hall full of children! 😊). Bonus is they are getting a deep clean for their event, and it will be cleaned again when they leave.- which means our cleaning day will be a bit easier. Our scouts are actually disgusting and I went to visit hall this week and it is such a mess 😳😬 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we should have gone back with just three and perhaps that number would have grown - who knows, all in the past now so no point dwelling on it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to admit that the number of cookies available has reduced somewhat. You are always welcome though. I'm currently working on a new teacosy (I suddenly decided that I needed seasonal ones) so if you give me a week I will make fresh cookies, mulled apple juice, tea (in a seasonal teapot) and possibly jacket potatoes... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
