🌞🥵 It's hot out there! 🥵🌞

We hope everyone is doing ok in the hot weather and managing to keep as cool as possible. It's definitely not an easy time to be working in schools and we would like to give a massive shout out and thank our staff who are braving the heat in classrooms, travelling in hot cars and continuing to deliver support in this heat.

🫶You are all wonderful!! 🫶

We would also like to shout out to all the teachers and school staff who are working in such difficult conditions and thank them for looking after us when we come into school. ❤️

Here is Helen, our Bereavement Counsellor, keeping cool and hydrated at Keresforth Primary School. Helen said "Thank you Keresforth Primary for letting me in early for my session, letting me fill up my water bottle (thank you Cherry Dale aswell for that) and sit and work in reception so I didn't melt in my car." 🫠💙
