Memories from January 2024
I honestly can't remember much but I remember going back to school on the 3rd Day of the Year and then starting my mocks soon afterwards but that's all I can remember.
What is everyone else's memories of January 2024?

I don't remember much to be honest :lol:I remember it being cold though 🥶
Memories from February 2024
My main memory from this month was going on holiday while most of the country had gone back to school (My county was one of only 4 in the country to have a week late February Half Term). It meant we got the sea view room at our hotel. I also remember my brother losing his Chimpanzee Teddy at the hotel and helping out at Options Evening.

If you're referring to a February half-term holiday from Friday the 16th of February to Monday 26th, then a lot of schools had that as their holiday. If after, then that's very late!

You have a good memory! I can barely remember anything from the beginning of this year (aside from the cold :s-smilie:)

Can't remember much from February either. Was a bit of a chill before the GCSE chaos really.

@Geo Lover 7 I applaud your memory :congrats:

Yes,I am. I think it might've been because I went to the South West who had their half-term the week before.

May I ask how you know it's only 4 schools in the whole country? I know 3 that had their half-term in the same week as you (4 including mine)

I don't. It wasn't many though. I think it was an East of England thing. @DerDracologe were you off during this week from the 17th February 2024-25th February 2024?

Literally every school around me had those dates. Primary schools typically had the week before or the same week from what I saw.

Bah I'll stop - we're ruining the new year spirit :woo:

Yes - a highly traumatic DofE expedition. French & Spanish oral examinations. Finishing GCSE subject syllabuses. Those were the main highlights that aren't giving away much about me :smile:
