What a lovely treat to have the ice-cream van in school. The sun was shining and all was pleasant then, as the children were lining up excitedly to wait their turn, Mr Gilmour did something that I have never seen him do before-he developed some kind of tunnel vision and he only saw the ice-cream van and the man through the window of the van as he rushed to the front of the line to ask if there were any Fabs! I haven't had a Fab in years but Mr Gilmour obviously is fond enough of the to make the children wait for their ice-cream! A lovely afternoon was had by all-the nursery children seemed to use the ice-creams as messy play but there we are-it was great!

This week has been great! I am so pleased with how the children have settled and I am relieved that the car park is running like a well oiled machine. I often wish my skills with technology were of equal weighting but I think I will have to refer to the saying ‘as long as you try your best’ with this. It all started with the brilliant idea of presenting Golden Awards ...VIRTUALLY!
