All day at the Lower School, and the first time we have had all of them together. We have made some last minute casting decisions, and swapped people around, which I hope will make a difference. I feel terrible that young children are being disappointed like this, but as the teacher said, they should have worked harder when they were given the opportunity. Am I turning into Margaret Thatcher? I hope not. I am not sure how anyone has the energy to be a primary school teacher. I had 60 kids to look after for the day, which I know is way above the average, and I did have assistants, but all the same, by the time I got home, I felt like weeping with tiredness. I had to dash off to after School club first though, which was rather good fun. Next week looms large, in that I am out pretty much every day on various projects, so a good weekend will be required to make it all worthwhile. We are also ensuring that youngest has everything she needs for her impending trip to Italy, ski-ing with the school. We have managed to get together all of the gear we need I think, and I have also managed to find an iPod on ebay for her...I find that buying second hand is so much more satisfying....I am not so sure my girls agree.
