DEAR READERS AND ADVERTISERS
Normal life has returned with the children back to school and the holidays over. Turning up for the first day of the new school year is either exciting or frightening but always filled with a trace of trepidation be it nursery, primary or at secondary school. It is said that school days are the best days of your life. For many they are but for some children they can’t wait to leave. We are all different and wouldn’t it be a boring life if we were all the same? Tolerance of difference seems to be in shorter supply than it was which social media might be contributing to. Hopefully some glorious autumn days will make us feel good about our world, feed our sense of wellbeing, help our children settle in to their new school environment and after all we have Christmas to look forward to.
