As CEO of @Edwardstrust, I’m working to ensure more families across the West Midlands get the free, specialist bereavement support they need. If you work with families, I’d love to connect. #BereavementSupport #WestMidlands #ChildLoss #CharityLeadership #childrensmentalhealth

@BarleyHill_Sch Thank you for an incredible end to the term for all years, but particularly Year 6! Have a lovely, restful summer - you all deserve it!

Well that’s another school year over and what a year it has been! We wish you a relaxing, fun and safe Summer Holidays. Thank you to the whole Barley Hill Community for your incredible support TEAM BARLEY HILL ❤️ ☀️

@BarleyHill_Sch Very exciting!! Costumes on the way (sorry!)

The 1st sneak peek of the Year 6 production now in full rehearsal mode! 🦴 🪨 🎭

Honoured to meet today with @Edwardstrust’s founder Peter Dent and first CEO Christine Bodkin to talk about our future. 36 years on, the need is still great. The charity sector is tough, but with courage, compassion and your support, we keep going. #EdwardsTrust #LegacyAndFuture

Every so often, I sit with where @Edwardstrust began - with Edward, aged 7, who drew a pink kite that became our symbol. His courage still guides us. No strings attached - just support for as long as families need it. #GriefSupport #EdwardsTrust #LegacyOfLove

@BarleyHill_Sch You’ve treated them beautifully throughout this process. It’s been wonderful to witness and so wonderful for them to experience. Thank you all!

Year 6 are enjoying a well-deserved relaxing celebration day after SATs. We have an Art Room, Board Game Room & Computing Room set up for everyone to enjoy!

@BarleyHill_Sch Thank you for taking care of them so beautifully!

The Barley Hill Team ensuring that Year 6 are fully ready for the day! 👏🙌

@BarleyHill_Sch Have the BEST time, everyone!! Thank you for the photo 📸

Year 4 are ready for an adventure!! Residential here we come! ☀️🌳

It’s a little late in the day, but no less heartfelt - I’d like to wish a very Happy Birthday to my dear friend, mentor, and amazing Patron of @Edwardstrust, the very special @Judy_at_TW. A friendship that I appreciate dearly. I hope you’ve had a happy day, Judy x

@BarleyHill_Sch I can’t PM you for some reason so apologies for the public reply, but I have a spare ticket available still. Mr W was thinking of coming along to support the dancers, still v. happy for him to have it.

Not long to go… Honeycomb Dance Festival 🎭 Tuesday 15th April! Barley Hill Primary School are 2nd in the show! 🤩

I picked up the most beautiful orchid gift yesterday when I was in the @Edwardstrust office. Our wonderful patron, and my friend @Judy_at_TW, always knows how to give a boost 🩷 Thank you so much! Xx

@BarleyHill_Sch Thank you for giving them such a fun week - they’re very excited!

It’s Christmas Disco Day today! 🎉 🎄 All classes will be enjoying a party slot through the day! 🕺 💃 🪩

@Judy_at_TW I’m the same Judy, and I really need to do it. Perhaps we can inspire each other to get started and keep going! x

Thank you! I stopped exercising daily eighteen months ago and you remind me I must restart. Judy

@BarleyHill_Sch Thanks for all you’re doing! You must be exhausted! Enjoy your final whole day and thanks for taking care of them all so beautifully. What an adventure it has been 🙂

And that’s an end to Day 3 of our Year 6 Trip! Everyone is now in bed and getting ready for our final whole day! Time flies when you’re having fun! Night from camp, See you in the morning! ✨ 🌙

@BarleyHill_Sch We love the updates! We are all missing them so seeing all of their adventures is really wonderful. Thanks for all that you’re doing!
