Bedtime Story
By Ms Victoria Overton
As a child, I loved bedtime Was it because I was tired? No, it was because I knew that my favourite moment of the day had arrived, my bedtime story. My dad always invested so much time, imagination, and love into the stories that he told me that they have become core memories for me and are certainly the reason why I love to read as much as I do as an adult
Creating a bedtime reading routine provides a child with so many tools, not just academically but also emotionally That special bonding moment can create conversations, promote a safe place to help channel emotions, and can also help improve their mental wellbeing The characters in the stories that we read (or invent) can provide models to help them understand big emotions and who they are, as well as help them understand complex situations in a child friendly way By recognising similar situations, feelings, and emotions in the stories that we tell, we are not only giving children the vocabulary that they need to express themselves but also the idea that they are not alone and that we understand their feelings
Are bedtime stories only for small children? Of course not This routine adapts to the child’s needs as they get older and build up more confidence in their own independent reading capabilities For example, with small children, we tend to read stories to them, invent stories with them, and try to ensure that they understand and relate to what they are being read However, once a child is starting on their own reading journey, we get them to read to us, we encourage them, congratulate them, and support their learning This not only builds up their reading confidence, but also their self-esteem and belief in themselves. Let's not forget that it’s not just about reading books, it's about stimulating the imagination and letting the creativity flow, so making up stories together can also provide powerful tools for them
What happens if we miss a day or can’t always stick to a strict schedule? Absolutely nothing This is a process that needs to be enjoyed from both sides, and sometimes life gets in the way All we can do is enjoy the moment, enjoy the process, and most importantly, enjoy the special moments with your child and watch them blossom

The RECIPE, please! Avocado and apple cream with salmon strips
By Sergi Natale EISB Chef
We bring you a very healthy and incredibly appetizing menu What a pleasure this makes taking care of ourselves!
Blend all the above ingredients together and place in a bowl. Ideally, this can be served with some delicious salmon nuggets
Method:
Cut the salmon fillet into strips of about 3 cm wide and 6 cm long, making sure that all bones are removed
Mix all the ingredients for the batter together: 200g bread (whole grain is best), 30g grated Parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons olive oil
Once all the ingredients have been mixed well, place this batter on the salmon strips and arrange them on a baking tray
Preheat the oven to 180ºC and bake the strips for 6 minutes
This recipe is an example of how palatable it is to take care of yourself and eat well

I'm currently finishing my 17th year in EISB, At first, the size of the school and the amount of students really surprised me. My first years here were spent as a tutor in 4th grade and afterwards as a tutor in 6th grade.
As for my interests, I've always loved reading and as I don't want to be caught up in the trend for watching series, which I think is a waste of time.
I've been studying Russian for over a year amongst other interests I love talking my dog out for long walks and I am a keen follower of Manchester United As for music, I love the American band called Pearl Jam, Vedder is a great singer and writer
As I've been here for quite a long time, from time to time I bump into students who used to be in my class years ago and it's always great to hear how they are getting on in life and a pleasure to see them again On a daily basis, there are always many things to do and time seems to fly by
Ingredients:
2 avocados
1 apple
3 tablespoon olive oil
1 lime
600g water
¼ branch celery
Regarding advice for my students, make sure your job revolves around your interests, read a lot, never stop learning Be kind and count to ten in moments of anger
