How's everyone doing? Are we all getting back into the swing of things after the school holidays?

I had the first of my new starters here today. They settled brilliantly and it was a lovely day. I've got another one starting on Wednesday so I hope they have an equally good day.

What's everyone got planned for the week? We've got a toddler group pencilled in and a trip to the library. Other than that it'll be free play at home while the new children get used to us all.

Will everyone be closing next week for the Queen's funeral? I checked with my Monday families and they'll all be at home so I didn't feel so bad booking the day off. Why is it we always feel so bad about taking time off?
