We heard our friends at Glyn Anwen residential care home were struggling having been in isolation for a long time... This afternoon, every class surrounded their entire building to sing them Christmas songs. Some watched from their lounge, some from their windows 🥰

This little year 1 superstar blew my socks off today! He has taught himself to play some of the songs from his class Christmas concert on the piano! He then let me have the privilege of playing this Christmassy duet with him at the end of the afternoon! #JingleBells #SoProud

The Ugandans say that when you get nervous, you should dance... they were nervous as they reached the top of the @NewportCouncil transporter bridge, so they started dancing their way along the top in true Ugandan style!
