Still can't believe we pulled off a school trip to New York, this is blowing the kid's minds (although they're now a bit tired after 26,000 steps). Anything really is possible when you Dare To Dream. 🌟

Just had one of the most emotional days of my career. A school trip across the pond is a whole other level unlocked – jet lag, skyscrapers, new friendships & kids seeing a whole new world for the first time. Their faces said it all. This is what Dare to Dream is all about. 💙🌎

It might have taken a long drive through the night in the school minibuses to get there, but taking the kids to see the sights and make some memories in London was absolutely worth it. Can't beat a good school trip.

Petition: Require landfills that cause smells and toxins near residential areas to close
I want the government to look into revoking licenses from landfill sites that continue to dump large amount of waste, causing hydrogen sulphide to be emitted into the atmosphere.

This would have my full support - most people have no idea how bad the funding situation in schools has become. The data I have suggests it gets even worse next year....
I am so disappointed to admit this, but we now need a powerful, collective response to the school funding situation in 2025-2026. @ascl-uk.bsky.social @naht.org.uk
Better together. Our children and their teachers have made enough sacrifices over the past 5 years.

Smashed my Apple Watch last week and turns out to be an absolute blessing - not missing the distracting notifications on my wrist and the feeling of being wired in to the grid.
