The Blue Fairy Wren: These beauties are always flittering around when I arrive at work in the mornings, such a delight!
I’m looking forward to seeing them again when school goes back. This year I’m being intentional and living aligned with my values of care and compassion. Included in this is self care and self compassion, making space for things that nourish my mind body and soul in a consistent way. So this is a sketch of the beautiful fairy wrens, it’s also me doing something to nourish my soul. What intentions are you taking into 2026?
Feel free to share below. Bridie x

Happy Birthday to my beautiful Mum. It has been such a challenging year but you still show up for me and my family everyday with love and kindness. And today, to have to say farewell to your beautiful sister and my Aunty Norma, seeing my cousins lose their Mum and you, your best friend, it’s just so sad. You really were two peas in a pod, yin and yang, the wind beneath each other’s wings. Both of you showed me how to be kind, and lead with loving kindness, always. You both loved me, and opened your hearts and homes to me without question. Today and everyday day, I witness my own children loving you and caring for you, leading with the loving kindness that you and Aunty Norma showed us through your actions. Happy birthday Mum, I’m thankful for every day I get to hug you and I’m so sad your best friend and sister left us this year. Keep shining bright Mum, you are so loved xx Aunty Norma, thank you for loving my Mum every day of your life! We miss you, and I promise I will look after Mum and love Mum the way you always did 💕

This is painted on the wall of my office . It took me a couple of weeks to really take in the beautiful mural and really see how it is a direct reflection of one my top values.

‘Always Lead with Kindness’

With every new class I set this intention. Be kind to each other, always be kind to yourself (negative self talk will always be reframed into a strengths based lense), and I will always be kind to the students in my care.

This is also the core value I use to connect with in my leadership role and instil in my own children.

Some days can be really tough, but this does not mean you should be tough on yourself.

A little reminder to be kind to kind to yourself and lead with loving kindness.

The simplest tool you can use to regulate yourself. But so often, when we feel stressed, we hold our breath or revert to shallow breathing. 😮‍💨Start practicing this breath during your day so it’s becomes a natural self regulation tool. 😮‍💨Practice it when are aren’t in stress response, in the car, walking into work, leaving work, in between tasks at home.
😮‍💨Let your breath guide you back to calm throughout your day.

Believe. 💫

At the 2025 AFL Grand Final, the Brisbane Lions ran out through one powerful word: Believe. 🦁
It’s more than a sporting slogan — it’s a mindset. Belief fuels resilience, effort, and growth in sport, in school, and in life.

I’m fascinated by sporting clubs and how they can be really
powerful communities that create unity and faith, whether you are a top afl player or a supporter, the growth mindset embodied in a positive way have a powerful impact on the whole community. I wonder what this would look like if applied to a whole school community.

On the field, belief means trusting the process, bouncing back after setbacks, and playing with resilience.

In education, belief means mistakes are opportunities to learn, effort leads to progress, and together we are stronger.

✨ Imagine what this commitment to a growth mindset could look like if applied everywhere:
🌿 Personally: persistence through setbacks
💼 Professionally: embracing challenges as opportunities
🏫 In schools: staff and students learning, failing, and improving together.

Believe. 💫
On the field or in the classroom, belief fuels resilience, effort, and growth.
Imagine if we applied that growth mindset personally, professionally, and across our schools — the impact would be powerful. ✨
