43: Back To School



Back

Back to School at 43 Last week, it was Lil' C's turn to be 'Star of the Week' for his kindergarten class. The day he was most excited about was the day he could invite a guest to read to the class.

As part of my 43 Things Before 43, I’m reading 43 books.

  • Going back to school at 40 or above may seem like a big challenge, but it’s definitely possible. All it takes is your courage to take the first step and get out of your comfort zone. There’re many ways you can start learning again to invest in something that will make you an expert.
  • We have a wide variety of stationery and school supplies. Find notebooks, folders, educational sheets, school tags, desktop bases, maps and more.
  • She spoke firmly to Jackie who didn't immediately move, but when Miss Carter took another step forward she finally moved. 'Sorry we're going to have to cut practice short guys, tidy up then back to the changing rooms - I've got this to deal with now,' she said before following Jackie into the school.

As I finish reading each one, I’ll add the titles here and links to reviews as I write them.
