I was also thinking how are you spending all that money going to Jamaica while some of her kids have not even been to Ghana yet.. (or maybe all of them not sure) dressing your kids up in some Ghanaian attire does not teach them anything about the culture..
I reckon 13k if not more

It's always been a thing in my kids schools too. I'm so glad this social media ban has been brought in too.
Me too, although I wish it went slightly older. My oldest is almost 15 and have had a nightmare with her and her phone, not quite sure she'll be mature enough by 16

Polperro is one of my favourite places even though I live in Cornwall I’m actually going to investigate these cottage’s as also not going abroad this year. Thank you for the recommendation!
Is Polperro a good base or is it hilly and difficult with mobility issues? X

Did they leave Elijah alone? That’s terrible if they did!
She says that he's in bed and then says they are taking wine when going round to friends for dinner. So unless their vans are directly next to each other or someone else is sat with them. It's been said before they leave the older girls to watch the smaller ones.

Who knows 🤔

It is actually quite hilly not a good base with mobility issues but if you do come you must visit there it’s the most beautiful place in Cornwall in my opinion anyway!

I absolutely loved the lost gardens. We spent the whole day there on Monday, then on Thursday afternoon popped there to let the kids play and have an ice cream. A beautiful place.

We are national trust members so I do like to see different places when we are away, I missed out half the gardens at Lanhydrock though as it was the hottest day and was too hot (especially for the toddler) even in the shade. What I did see was lovely though!
The lost gardens are so beautiful we used to take our daughters there often when they were little. So pleased you enjoyed it too! Sounded lovely!
It’s so good to be national trust members there’s some wonderful places to visit here. Lanhydrock is lovely but goodness yes it’s been absolutely scorching this week so completely understand why. So glad you enjoyed Cornwall 😊

Anyone who opposes the phones in school ban clearly hasn't tried to manage a classroom full of teenagers who are constantly on their phones - the amount of time it takes away from actually teaching having to manage this stuff is ridiculous.

Why do children need phones in schools anyway? Getting to and from school if they travel alone or with friends. Absolutely. But during school hours what do they actually need phones for?

She also does understand that in some work places you aren't allowed your phone either, in clinical areas you certainly aren't. So your telling me wino doesn't abide by this when he's at work?...

In relation to the social media ban.. overall I am happy with it (and I have two teenagers) I appreciate that people think it's another way to push electronic ID however the amount of children this will protect from a safeguarding point of view trumps that worry by far.

Social media is so detrimental to children's wellbeing and poses massive safeguarding concerns. Cyber bullying is absolutely rife at the moment, not to mention the impact it has on mental health, grooming etc the list is endless. But I am really passionate about this, I really hope they bring in not being able to show under 16 year olds on open social media sites and any monetised pages too. That would be absolutely incredible
I wholeheartedly agree with everything you’ve said here.

I was one of those people that followed Mo and unfollowed Claire. I should have done it nearly 12 months ago when her content changed. She just rage baits. The singing tasks, high kicking pointing in the air. Not for me I'm afraid.
