Reflecting on the year, the joy, the sadness, the change, and the growth. I've been teaching for over 20 years, and every day, l learn something new. Genuinely love teaching! ❤️ Have an amazing summer everyone, and thank you! 🙌🙌🙌 #MakeitCount #EverydayLearning #edutwitter

Four days, 3 nights, countless hills, forests, and paths visited. I love the outdoors, and to give back, taking young people out on @DofE #expeditions is always one of the highlights! Congratulations to all involved and thank you 🏴🙌👏🙌👏🙌🏴 #MakeitCount #WeareDofE

Live, love, learn, legacy. Higher goal, clear purpose, and strategy = Direction ⬆️ So many lessons from René Meulensteen in this brilliant #HighPerformancePodcast. Really enjoyed listening tonight 🙌 #MakeitCount #Leadership #Learning #connection youtu.be/xAXdEyjN5FI?si…

Never give up. Tonight's boulder session was all about one problem, which took over 16 attempts, but it was amazing to finally complete! This then inspired my own daughter, who, after numerous attempts on her nemesis, completed her overhang 🙌🙌🙌 #MakeitCount #bouldering

Thanks for sharing @pdLouiseP 💛 Definitely #MakeitCount ❤️
Today im reminded about how short and fragile life is. Don't wait, don't leave things for later. ❤️
A few days under canvas to start the half term well. Great to just pitch up, and either run, swim or paddle from the porch! Bagged a few peaks on a monster trail run, so good to #getoutside over #halfterm ❤️🏴💚 #Mindset #Wellbeing #MakeitCount




Beautifully crafted, amazing to see a few residents moving in over the past week as well 🐝🪲🐞 #BugHotel #Biodiversity
A year 7 student launched an Bug Hotel competition as part of her Environment Leaders Project. The winning creation was this amazing piece, made by another year 7 and his dad at the weekend. This is now in the school garden! Huge thank you to all that took part! #TheEPCHSWay
I've been rather quiet on here the past few weeks, a busy time and a fair few events saw the shortest of half term of the year literally pass in a blink of the eye! Hope everyone is well, and if you are on half term, enjoying a great break 😁#MakeitCount #Goodtobeback
Fantastic few days leading our Bronze @DofE groups around the beautiful Welsh countryside. Big shout out to our staff team who make this happen and to the students, you were awesome! Pleasure to have spent time in the outdoors with you all 🏴 #WeareDofE #MakeitCount #expedition

I've had a fantastic few days out on the bikes. Two road rides, including watching the sun set over #Chester racecourse and then bridleway bashing on my early 2000 Kona MTB with my daughter. So much fun! 😁 #MakeitCount #teacher5aday
