We hope you are all rested and ready for the autumn
term ahead and we wish all children starting a new
school the very best. Remember it can take a little time
to adjust to anything new, so treat you and your children
with kindness, patience and a few treats along the way.
One of those treats could be a day trip, so check out our
‘What’s On’ guide on pages 20 and 21 for some autumn
inspiration!
Education is a key topic for September, so do find the time to read our articles on ‘How
to be great at spelling’ on page 9 and ‘What does a good state school look like?’ on
page 11. We also list independent schools’ open day events on page 8. Our parenting
articles look at ‘Overcoming disappointment and bouncing back from failure’ on page 12,
‘Making money real for kids in a cashless society’ on page 15 and ‘Five mindful questions
to ask your child about their day’ on page 16.
