Loved working with various classes on some great projects with much success. Retired a year ago after 40 years teaching and really missing it. Have just discovered that my school has not entered this year. Would be happy to help in any way I can!!!!!

Hi, is it too late to enter the competition? Our school won a prize last year and I have just realised the closing date was last Friday? Our school is Ffaldau Primary School, Bridgend. Thank you, Stephanie Evans
