Significant news for pregnant teachers going forward. As we look forward to more easing of restrictions this month and Ireland’s vaccine program picks up steam, the Department of Education has confirmed that pregnant teachers and special needs assistants (SNAs) will not have to return to the classroom for the rest of the term. After schools […]
Lockdown is ending and for most of us, this slow return to some normality might mean actually putting on makeup again – after a year of only bothering to when we needed to have the camera ON during Zoom meetings. All your old foundations dried up? Fear not – we know exactly the one you […]
Yes, please! It will be another summer of staycations for the vast majority of us – but TBH, we don’t mind it so much – especially now that we have clapped eyes on the brand new The Rabbit Hotel & Retreat in Co. Antrim. The gorgeous boutique hotel, which is due to open its doors […]
