So many lovely things to see when you make the effort to walk into town: a muntjac deer going for a paddle in the River Welland.

A lovely muddy and breezy walk at Wistow.

Thank you so much to whoever left these daffodils of kindness on a bench in Market Harborough. Brighter days are coming! @saimasaleh.bsky.social I’m sharing these with you.

International Day of Women and Girls in Science A good day to watch Hidden Figures.

Noticed these on my walk yesterday. Love the beauty in their fragile appearance, but the strength they must have in holding their shape in the winter.

A sunny Sunday afternoon stroll along the canal spotting one of the resident kingfishers.

Love that the snowdrops are beginning to appear in the garden.

A lovely last evening of the school holiday spent in Pantoland watching Sleeping Beauty with colleagues and children from school at the Little Theatre, Leicester . A great show 👏

Love a Lego project. Great to spend some time constructing this.

Always so lovely to put up our school tree as part of the Christmas Tree Festival at St Mary’s Church in Knighton. This year we decorated our tree to celebrate the many languages spoken in our school. If you’re in Leicester do visit the festival this weekend if you can.

What a lovely gesture from a work friend.

Love an autumnal wander: Ferym woods. Intrigued by all the different shaped tree trunks.

#REchatUK will continue on twitter for now. We hope those of you who still have an account will join Molly and Shabnam for the September discussion about Dharmic Traditions #TeamRE

Lovely to be at Launde Abbey this morning to share the ‘wild worship’ we do at school with people from across Leicester and Peterborough dioceses.

Simply stunning! My ‘Rachel’ rose has continued to bloom all summer.

#Edusky #TeamRE It would be really useful and such a great opportunity to have your say! I’ll be lobbying at the #LabourConference on behalf of #NATRE this October and would love to speak to your local Labour MP about all that we need answers to! Here’s your chance!! 😎❤️👍🏽

Spent time this morning at the immersive art exhibition at the Now Building at Outernet, London. As part of it we were immersed in Rembrandt’s Storm on the Sea of Galilee. #TeamRE

Massive thanks to @re-mcgee.bsky.social for talking about the importance of good RE and the need for expertise teachers www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

It’s good to see that people are interested in hearing about RS at the moment. Thanks to NATRE exec member @chrisnatre.bsky.social who spoke to BBC radio Gloucestershire this morning From 1:08:40 www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

You heard it here first… #StrictlyRE is back face to face for 2025! All of the fantastic CPD, plus networking, laughter, food and all the other wonderful things about seeing each other in person. Full details here www.natre.org.uk/courses-even...

Do you have any ECTs of RE or new to RE teachers starting in your school is September? Make sure they know about the free CPD webinars available from NATRE. Sign up here www.natre.org.uk/membership/e...

So excited that #StrictlyRE is back as a face to face conference. Looking forward to seeing who the speakers will be and what the themes of the seminars are? Fantastic RE CPD for #TeamRE

Created this to go in our school prayer space / reflection area display on love! Love a crafty task for work when avoiding paperwork.

Finally put together my RE session for Thursday’s inset day. Focus on developing our ways of knowing and tools used in lessons. Useful image from @fionajmoss.bsky.social training on suggested tools. Staff can decide which they use and then I’ll complete the chart for use in lessons. #TeamRE

My plans to do lots of work today are not happening. Getting in at 2.30am from a day in London so my daughter could attend the Eras Tour concert have left me just about capable of inputting dates in my diary!
