It makes me want to loads more of this type of research but I'm also aware than I'm getting too old to be outside in all weathers!!

Currently coding the qualitative data for my Masters research - why did I choose mixed methods!! In all seriousness, it's so interesting to see the impact of just six weeks of outdoor learning on pupils at risk of school exclusion. It's also heartbreaking to hear some of their stories. #AP #edusky

Today we mourn the passing of Rev. Jesse Jackson, a giant of the civil rights movement who never stopped demanding that America live up to its promise.



He marched, he ran, he organized and he preached justice without apology.

May we honor him not just in words, but in struggle.

What a beautiful version of The Winter's Tale. It's one of my favourites and, in my view, underrated... @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social

If you need me, I'll be cooking halwa! This book made me hungry - the illustrations of Eid food are simply delicious. What a beautiful exploration of the traditions of Eid al-Fitr. @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social

What a joyous romp! It reminds me slightly of Stuck by Oliver Jeffers, with the list of sticky things getting more and more hilarious! This will have young children in stitches @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social

I absolutely love Rachel Chivers Khoo's books. The Finders are magical collectors of lost items and this is a timeless, cozy adventure. Think The Borrowers meets The Magic Faraway Tree. This book explores friendship, courage and caring for the environment. @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social

Meet Zack. He’s trying to save Earth and his best friend from a galactic overlord. But Zack is officially The World's Worst Alien. This book by Alice Primmer is hilarious and packed with chaos. Perfect for fans of Tom Gates & David Solomons. Kids aged 8-12 will love it! @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social

I'm so excited to read this. The third installment of Jennifer Bell's Magicalia series, Storm of Chaos. I have had so many reluctant readers who are transfixed by magicores. This latest quest takes the heroes from the Galapagos islands to the rainforests of Borneo. #MGLit @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social
