Today was a bit of a milestone for me. Back in August I had a sudden thunderclap headache and spent time in hospital in Aberdeen and Edinburgh. I started phasing back to work today! Yes I'm tired but so delighted to get some normality back.

Just like that the holidays are nearly over. The last two weeks have been taken over by hockey again! Devils were runners up in the Brave Cup then Zack was welcomed by some winning players when trying out for new teams in Glasgow! Love the sportsmanship. ❤️🏑

This is our new team account. Please give us a follow! We are 3 passionate teachers providing alternative activities and qualifications to ensure our young people have positive destinations.
This pair have enjoyed visiting the river over the last couple of weeks. We were delighted that there was very little litter for us to pick up in Seaton Park. We finished off with a treat from the van and helped the owner close up. 😃

Interesting study. I saw this in some teachers of Gypsy/Travellers.

Seven years ago, aged 10 Zack could make anything out of nothing. Lego, fairy lights, boxes and tape became a rocket launcher. Now, at 17 he is building his second PC independently. He has researched, saved and is now building. Play is definitely the way!

Whirlwind trip to Glasgow yesterday to view student accommodation. Don't think this flat was a contender even though it has fantastic views and you almost see the hockey pitch at Glasgow Green!😂
