[raftn]

Right food is scoffed. Goodbyes completed. I'm off on a ride 'nuff said!

Gi Joe........last seen heading south...........wont be heard of again till ........schools back.

School is out, indeed!!

My year has gone SO fast, being my first year teaching etc.

Two of our teachers are leaving this year (we have 5 so it is quite a big departure). Had a small lunch, wine, nibbles, chatting etc after the kids left at 12.30 today.

Even though the children have gone home, we still have a bit of work to do. We are getting a new administration block next year, the build is starting over the holidays) so everything has to be moved around. I am also having to move classes so all my rubbish (amazing how much is collected in only a year) has been moved (mostly) to another class.

Also have to finish balancing my roll, have done part of it this afternoon and then decided wine was more interesting.

It has been a super super year, I have had the best class a first year teacher could ever hope for. I have been able to take part, organise and contribute to so many wonderful activities throughout the school and have had amazing results from my children.

Now, 6 weeks of NOTHING! I feel it is very much deserved!!

Do you have to take that to the chemist?

Well as I live and weep, I slept in till the giddy heights of 8.30am

Was a bit lost and adrift for a wee while, mooched around in my grundies and scratched body bits ... then some brekkie and then some KB ... and all of a sudden I have found an excuse for a ride!

Far and away from seeing any of my earstwhile ex-charges I shall be thoroughly enjoying not thinking of them anymore!

Now ... where are my clothes ...

[Lucy]

Well as you lot may or may not know, I help finance my lavish lifestyle down here by driving a School bus. Not my dream job, and luckily it ends tomorrow due to Go Bus taking over,

Anyway, today I got my revenge on the School by giving the kids coloured fizzy drinks and lollies. Hahahahahaha.

....my friend, how amazing this is...

For once I loved the noise
The halls beat like a heart
The young, the new, the gifted
Ran through oak lined corridors
Past trophies of past greatness
Past names of those who tell
of flags, of joy, of lateness
The great ones who loved and fell

Then now, for noise is over
Young hearts run free
To learn no more
To clear the mind
Pray mistless mountains they will be

For now, time to express
That song, an emotion, a stand
For school is out
The year is done
We run
Because we can

School? What is this thing you people call "school?"

[gijoe1313]

Again slept in to the soaring majesty of 8.00am.

At this rate I will be waking up as the moon is going down!

[Gremlin]

Yeh, but what time did you go to bed... do you ever get 8 hours sleep?

Yeh, but what time did you go to bed... do you ever get 8 hours sleep?

I think I did get 8 hours continuous sleep somewhere in 1987 ... I am a dreamweaver ... I steal sleep from others which means I can be a riding demon of the night, stalking the roadways, pouncing on hapless paths that lead to the back and beyond, making my nefarious sojourns to destinations unpathed and enticing with signs that say "bikers beware".

Ooh, I feel a ride coming on ... even though I went into Botany Honda today and tried to make my 24K service booking for earlier then I intended to!
