#FunFactFriday and as it's Lunar New Year over half term we thought we'd wish you all Happy Lunar New Year and look at the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac.

Why is the horse 7th in the 12-year cycle of animals? This piece from BBC Bitesize explains it all!

February #FunFactFriday

February is mathematically unique as the only month with fewer than 30 days (28, or 29 in a leap year). It is also the only month that can pass without a full moon, and in non-leap years, it is the only month where every day of the week appears exactly four times.

It's almost your last chance to get your CODE Conference tickets - sales close at midnight on Sunday and the event is very nearly a SELL OUT 🎉😃🥳

Get your tickets here - buff.ly/V4IwdnQ and don't miss out!

WHAT a weekend THAT was! The CODE region was hit hard by Storm Goretti; schools were closed, there were widespread power-outages, water supplies were cut off and damage was sustained to homes 😔

BUT we also saw communities across our region rally together 😍

Here's to a better week of weather!

It's the first #FunFactFriday of the year and we think we're starting off strong on this one 😂

Apparently on this day in 1493 Christopher Columbus first saw manatees mistaking them for mermaids, describing them in his journal as "not half as beautiful as they are painted".
