If you lose German from the curriculum, you miss out on the benefits of family ties with English, the most spoken native language in the EU, a major language of engineering, business & science & a gateway to Dutch & Scandinavian languages. Don’t close the doors that German opens.

What a beautiful weekend to be in Whitby with Y10s from George Pindar School 24 years in and I still ❤️ a school trip #ProudToBePindar

The antidote to a packed and busy but proud week….an hour at the Lottie and my winter onions are just perfect 🧅 #WorkLifeBalance #gardening

Break from work with half an hour in the garden, drying my crop and checking progress with a chocolate helper. Love sunny days #WorkLifeBalance #growyourown

Rumour Has It that Adele is learning German ahead of her residency in Munich next month. Maybe Adele wants to incorporate this into her set:

No more sleeps!!!! Sports day for #TeamPindar then #schoolsoutforsummer 👏👏👏

Swapped my usual Sunday afternoon on CPOMS for digging, sorting and storing. Happy first weekend to those on Edutwitter who’ve broken up 🙌

So true! 🧡

For me, German was an exciting new language to follow French. I could beginnen lernen a sister language of English. It had similar words, was relatively easy to pronounce & opened up yet more of the world. It even made sense of grammar. Give German a try. theguardian.com/education/arti…

Mmmmm lecker 😋

Great to be back at work with our wonderful George Pindar School community although it’s not as good for my trends as holiday hiking is. Avoided my traditional end of first week back 7.30pm sofa snooze by giving blood 🩸 NHS Blood+Transplant Donation number 43! #giveblood if you can 👏
