Got up at 7 am, which left me enough time to get ready for work and check the Guinea Pigs. It was raining so I decided to leave putting them out in their run to Hubby and the kids as he had the day off and the kids had no school.
Even though I had gone [...]

It was back to work today after over 6 weeks off; I can not believe how fast the holiday period went. Well they do say “Time flies when you are having fun” so that would explain it!
I woke up on time no problem, before my alarm in fact, must be the excitement of the first [...]

The last day of work/school, hooray! A strange day to today, I was looking forward to laying in and chilling for 6 weeks but I was also sad that the scholl year had ended as my class would not be returning in September. Instead they would be starting secondary school!
We filled the morning with the [...]

Our last but one day of school, the children were in good spirits and we spent the first part of the morning do fun stuff, like painting and making things out of boxes. The children then went out to play sports while we carried on tidying the classroom ready for the new teacher in September to [...]

An interesting morning at work today with all our year group staff rushing around making last minute improvements to staging, props and dance routines to our end of year production. As our first performance to parents was at 2 pm it was all hands on deck.
The performance went suprisingly well, with only a couple of mistakes which the parents did [...]

What a day! We had the first dress rehearsal of our end of year production this morning and a second in the afternoon, to members of staff and pupils. It definitely helped us see a few staging problems which we managed to iron out by the afternoon. The hall was hot and stuffy, although I was fortunate [...]

It’s the last week of school, hooray…… We spent the day finishing off props, sewing costumes, singing songs and practising lines for our end of year production, which we desperately needed to do, as the first dress rehearsal was the next day in front of the staff and pupils in KS1. The day seems to [...]

The day started off well, I did my break duty with the bubbly teacher from New Zealand and as usual she had us in fits of laughter in no time. Things started to go down hill when the drama teacher from the other year 6 class walked out of the rehearsals of the end of school production in [...]

Today, apart from the disco, was pretty uneventful and was only memorable by the fact that we appear to be so not ready for the year 6 production which has its first performance to key stage 1 childern on Tuesday morning. The props are nearly done but most of the costumes are non-existent, the children [...]

What a day, it was our Sports Day today and I spent aleast 3 hours on my feet helping to orgainise house teams competing in the sport of Boccia! Yes, it was a new sport to me too. Its a bit like bowls, you roll a small ball and then have to get a bigger [...]
