Y7 Parents' Evening for the middle one tonight Thankyou @RoundhaySchool ... Seriously impressed by the relationships forged by teachers with him. Lovely to see how they spoke to him (not just me) and how intently he listened, engaged and responded. #RespectIsTwoWay

Needed to hear this today! Sometimes the gentle gentle approach works... Other times you need a kick up the backside. Off for a run now!
I’m not happy with the way you’re treating yourself 🤬

Insight into the reality of how much positive approaches like this matter...Pulled up 5.05pm from work &didn't even get out of the car before my Y6 & Y3 boys were in, seatbelts on, so excited to go back to school to show me their art & dance. #Happiness #Thankyou @RSch_Primary
Thank you to everyone that visited our Art and Dance showcase this afternoon, we hope that you enjoyed celebrating your child’s work! A celebration of Culture and Colour 🌈🎨

"it's character building" people used to say.... You know what? I think maybe they were right. My 2 made another deposit to their "life experiences bank"- experiencing again how grit & resilience feels & the pride that comes when you face down a challenge 💪🏼💪🏼 #resilient #run
Big shout out to all our fantastic runners today who showed up in the mud and rain for the last LSAA Cross Country Race of the season! You were AWESOME! Well Done Everyone 👏🏻 @LeedsNE_SGO

Littlest's first school football match today - and playing with kids a year above him! Totally gutted to not be there. #DrawbacksOfteaching Super proud of him. Go #TeamRoundhay!
⚽️Our fabulous Y3/Y4 footy team played today @ Bodington Football Hub in the @LeedsWellSchool city wide football competition and qualified for the finals in April. During the whole day they won 7 matches and only lost once. Scoring a whopping 25 goals and only conceding once! ⚽️

David Harewood: “My wife went to the theatre the other day, it cost her nearly £200 - who could afford that? We all need to start talking about it and protecting it because if we’re not, if we’re not careful it will vanish.”

Just watched @CockburnJCA #HighSchoolMusical ... What a great show! And to see the joy on all the students' faces as they performed - this is why we need performing arts in schools. Special shout out to the phenomenal #saxophone player -wow! #drama #teamEnglish #MoreThanGrades

Really appreciate middle one's coach - other week he turned up to work despite being rather ill & off sick the day before because he knew it meant a lot to the team to still play their match. Great win today👏⚽(& a trip out on the mini bus!-the simple pleasures of childhood)😊
What a brilliant win for our @RoundhayY6 footy team this evening at Gledhow Primary School. Gledhow are sitting top of the league and our wonderful team won 3-2 in a pulsating game! Well done! #proud #weareroundhay
