Schools out for the summer ~ Good By Kirkley schools.

Whoooo .... Thursday marked the last day of term for Big C and Little C who were still at school. Both S and C had broken the day before..  I always look forward to the run up to the summer holidays, finding out the children's new teachers and what friends they have in their class, usually gets us mums in the play ground talking for a few weeks.

However with the middle school closing its been tinged with a little sadness. The kids of " kirkley" get a bad reputation. But they are not bad kids and the school turned its self around alot since being in special measures .. Kirkley High is also finished, It is being turned into an academy and as from Septuember will be known as East Coast Academy will have new managment and some new staff, its nice that some of the middle school staff will be there, some fimiler faces for the students ...

So here's to the kids as we make the most of this summer break take a little time to enjoy the good weather and unwind before we get ready for their new school, their new class and new friends.
