The study road really does end here, as I write I hear the soothing sounds around me and I know everything is all ok.
Yesterday my ou result came through and I write this knowing I have a degree in the bag a BA (Hons). I can't believe how far I have come.
So even thought I have already in person I would like to thank those around me for their support, love and care.
Mum - I hope I have made you proud!
My life has turned around and I am grateful, calm and happy.
So, the next big event will be just over 2 weeks time and I'm very excited about that.

School's out
For those who read my twitter feed you would have seen that the final days of school was an emotional time for us all. I think from the staff point of view we had realised how much we had collectively achieved and what a year we had. The last few days consisted of school trips and on uniform days for the students and high fives (inside joke) with the staff.
The students will need the 6 weeks to recharge before they embark on year 8 and the staff need the time to recover before we greet an ever expanding school in September.
School ended with us staff sending the students off at lunchtime and then going off to have a bbq complete with speeches and some tears followed by a well deserved night out.
As I write this I look back over the months with fondness, I have made some good friends since September and I feel so proud of myself and my new friends. When I go back in September I now I can deal with whatever is thrown at me, it will never be as harsh as it was in the very early days of the school
In other news, the OU graduation ceremony has been booked along with the gown and the other bits and bobs that go with such a thing. Again I look back and I feel so proud of what I have achieved with regard to study. It was not easy but I am the first in my family to have completed a degree and the tears, heartache and sheer hard work has been worth it as its all over now, all that's left is celebration. I have not got my official result yet but I was urged to book, so book I did. I have decided that I need to leave the study behind now, I don't need to battle any further and everything have fallen into place, I could not wished for better.
This week sees a royal baby being born to Kate and William, a boy, like last year with the Olympics the country seemed to join together and rejoice. The excitement from where I was seemed to seep through everything and even the hardest person seemed to soften by this news.
The last few months have been very exciting for me and things continue to be joyful and exciting, I look forward to being able to share some of the good news with you soon but in the meantime lets just enjoy the sunshine.

Made the right choice
For those who follow me on twitter you would have seen that the last month or so has been very exciting personally for me with lots of wonderful things happening each and every day.
Its been great to share the amazing ride with you and my fantastic friends and family.
To add to this wonderful time summer has officially started, the last week or so has been hot, bright and sunny. This has given me the chance to enjoy the sunshine and relax.
In other news the school has had many land marks to celebrate alongside my own. We took the whole school to Cambridge to see the universities and the many opportunities available there. We also had our first sports day and it was amazing to see the students and staff once again bond together. Our first summer fayre and year 6 transition day. We were invited to the book awards and our big band played at the Barbican. This week sees the school venture into Kent to enjoy Rochester.
We had our second residential weekend and a video was played of our first year, it brought many a tear to lots of us, we have come on so far and met each hurdle and joy with energy and grace.
Its hard to put into words how much we have achieved in the year but it has been wonderful and I know that the choice I made a year ago to join this academy was the right choice. My new team has been picked and are ready for the next stage of their life, I am super excited about heading this wonderful team and they are excited to be joining me on this trip!
I cannot believe that we have just one week left time has really flown.
Its all good, stay blessed.
