Another term ended. The children all left the school with weary but smiling faces today - the last few weeks have been very hard for everyone. The staff similarly all left the building with huge smiles but all had the air of someone in need of a good rest. Teaching is a very hard profession and requires endless patience, resilience and energy - all of these tend to be running out towards the end of term! Good will to all men can be a little difficult when some of the folks involved are not very positive in the ways in which they approach you - but we have managed to get to the end of the Autumn term without too many traumas.
Tonight is the end of term staff party. I think I might run a book on who will be the first to fall asleep and the first to leave. We are holding the event in a popular local night spot so it should be an opportunity for those of us with hair to let it down a little and have a relaxing evening. No one has to get up tomorrow - well not too early anyway.
If anyone actually reads this blog I would like to wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Next term will soon be upon us and all of the fun that comes in the Spring will start before we know it!!
