Cloud watcher
Every night at midnight, the purple clouds came out to dance with the blushing sky, seeming to sweep the night sky off its feet. Their dynamic encounter creating an aura of vibrant colours, spiralling, flickering, sending their flow of energy down towards the earth beneath. It was a sight that captivated anyone who was lucky enough to witness this intimate celestial union. Eyes becoming transfixed skyward as the clouds twirled and swayed, lost in the music of the universe.

Are your seedlings thriving or just surviving?
It is such a privilege to be able to immerse in the warmth of the sunshine, surrounded by the vibrancy of nature's colourful bounty, my nose filled with their heady bouquet. Accompanied by the chorus of birds announcing the arrival of longer days, I sit on the lush grass, the soft blades caressing my toes while the blossom from the apple tree gentle rains down its petals, like snow in the warm breeze.

School related anxiety and home educating through Covid-19
If you have a child who is showing you with their actions or words that they don’t want to go back to school when the Covid-19 lockdown is lifted, that they are happier learning at home, maybe it is time to embrace this golden opportunity that the current lockdown situation has presented and try something new.
