Last week Lexi came to work with me for the afternoon... Today she is enjoying the first day of a 2 week half-term!! #IndyEdSendco #Lexithedog

So.. today at the end of an open day, Lexi decided to do this... At least this pigeon was complete... the last one had no head! Bloomin' young foxes need to learn to take them away after the initial kill!!! #IndyEdSENDCo #LexiTheDog #TCboarding #EduSky #UkEd

I love it when I can start to buy new assessments...and this is a whopper!! #IndyEdSENDCo #EduSky

Lexi with her new housemates! #BoardingHouseDog #TCBoarding #TClife #IndyEdSENDCo #LexiTheDog

A mixed emotions end of Spring Term... 'Joseph' was an absolute triumph. Cast and crew were amazing & technicolored! Then it was time to shut down the theatre 😪 for a while (roof is being fixed) which meant moving set & costume stores and the lighting rigs-a whole team effort! #IndyEdSENDCo #EduSky
