It's always hard to say goodbye, and it was an emotional time for volunteer Coral Blackhurst when the kids were queuing up to give her a farewell hug.
Auntie Coral, who spent first three months at the Happy House at the end of 2010 and start of 2011, has now come to the end of her second visit.
Coral, from the Isle of Man, has been at the Happy House since October and has worked so hard helping in school and using her own skills, as a trained teacher, to work alongside our teachers.
Coral has gone straight on to the British Virgin Islands to visit her daughter and celebrate her grandson's birthday, before heading back to the UK in time to be at the charity night in Blackpool on March 16.
Taking pride of place in her luggage is the beautiful card from our family, and, we know, her head and her heart will be full to the brim of wonderful memories of our children.
Thank you Auntie Coral and safe travelling!
