You know that 'hurry up/ slow down' feeling you get when you are waiting for something that you know is going to be great and you wish time would hurry up but at the same time you wish it would slow down so you can savour the anticipation? That's June. We have one eye on the prize at the end of the month but at the same time are trying to soak up and slow down every minute left in our learning spaces. Regardless of whether we are rushing June or trying to slow it down, the end always comes and here it is- the last Friday Housekeeping for the school year. We will try to finish and post all of our year end pictures and videos by next Friday or the beginning of the next week at the latest so keep an eye out for them. Don't forget you can download and save all of the pictures and videos to your own computer so you will always have them. As usual, the end of next week and the completion of the 2023/24 school year is going to come entirely too quickly. We're going to savour every minute.
