❤️💛 A decade of Jo Jingles 💛❤️
🥁 Dozens of props and instruments
🎶 Hundreds of playlists
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Thousands of jinglers and their families
🎵and I can’t even begin to guess how many times I’ve sang ‘Good Morning’, ‘ Goodbye’ and ‘Tidy Up Time’
🥰 I can’t put into words how much you have all meant to me. To watch your children grow up has been an honour and a privilege and to get to see you every week has been so special.
💛❤️ ‘That Happy Little Fellow, All Dressed up in Red and Yellow’ and all of your Jinglers will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Thank you for everything and thank you for spoiling me rotten this week, your gifts were so thoughtful.

I will miss you so much 😭

📸One last time for luck - who’s got photos to share? I’d love to see your old school photos too!!

🎉🎉🎉 Retford Jinglers - I’ve just got off the phone with St Joseph’s hall and they’ve confirmed WE HAVE HEAT!!!!!
🥵 please spread the word so that we don’t all arrive dressed for the Arctic!
😭 can’t wait to see you for our last ever classes xx

😭 After a decade of jingling, I’ve packed the car for the last time, I’ve planned my last programme and I’m all ready for what is going to be a very emotional week!

❤️ I don’t think there are many jobs where you have to not only say goodbye 10 times instead of 1, but also stand at the front and sing goodbye every time!! 🙈

🥰 I’m so lucky to have had a job that I have loved so much, working with the best people, which will make this a very hard week. Please bear with me, there may well be a lot of tears 😭

So, thought I’d do the Apple Music yearly round up and see what cool tunes I’ve been listening to in 2022. Tidy up time. 553 times. That’s what I’ve been listening to 🤪🤪🤪🙈 (sorry to everyone who now has this in their heads)

🕷 I’ve had the best week with our Halloween themed classes!

🥰 it’s been a very emotional week after sharing the news with you all that this half term will be my last.

❤️Hello Jinglers!

💛 After over a decade of running classes and 8 years of owning the franchise, it is time for a new challenge and for me to ‘say goodbye’ to running my franchise. 😢 The half term starting on Monday will be my last.

🥰 From January I will be returning to my teaching roots, but this time Primary, rather than Secondary. All of this time spent with your amazing Jinglers has made me realise how much I love working with younger children, so I will be teaching a mixed year 1/2 class.

❤️💛 I will forever be grateful to all of you for the support you have given me over the past decade. It has truly been an honour and privilege to work with you and I leave with so many happy memories. I will miss you all so much.

🎵 If anyone would like information about continuing Jo Jingles in our area, please contact me.

Take care everyone,

Love Katy ###x

I can’t believe my littlest jingler is back at school today (and not looking very little any more!). It was very strange only taking one child to primary school today 😢 The biggest jingler starts Secondary school tomorrow!

Good luck to all the jinglers starting school! I’d love to see your photos 📸
