Hello @kath017 and welcome to hive.
As a fellow teacher it's always a pleasure to meet another teacher who understands the importance of education.

Take your time and find your way around our and now your platform.

We collectively own hive and we have true freedom of speech. That alone is a rarity these days.
It's a great place for journaling and clarifying your thoughts.

I applaud you as a single parent. It's the toughest job on earth.
