Day 274 – Thursday 28th October 2010

Off to work we go. This week seems to be going fast.

I spent the morning trying to write the English end of year exam, and by using as few pieces of paper as possible. I do feel sorry for the kids having to read ‘Mr John’s made up stories’ and then answer questions on them. It is the wannabe author in me.

The afternoon was spent teaching, and giving some advice on revision techniques. They didn’t quite understand the idea of a pneumonic.

Armorel spent the day on the ward, helping out the nurses, encouraging them and giving handy hints when drugs and obs were being forgotten. It is going be very tough to leave and hand it all over to the nurses. A big challenge!

This afternoon we treated the kids to our sporting prowess, with football and netball. There was a lot less bickering than normal, which was a welcome relief. Kids bicker so much more out here! It is unbelievable.

I have a meeting with the head tomorrow morning about discipline in the school. It is going to be tough!

The evening has disappeared with a short cowboy film and the next episode of ER, and now it is off to bed.

The wind is picking up too! Maybe another storm is on its way?
