 1 Nov 2020 -  I have had this plant for some time, but she does not seem to want to do much. I am at a loss as to what to do next - I have replaced the soil, fed her with potash. Perhaps she needs just the right area to grow.

Ending of class year at work

So, today, Fri 23 October is Yr 12's last day of school lessons. It seems amazing - my 2 Yr 12 English classes, plus the Extension group are over.

It's such a feeling of relief, that is all finishing, and that the stress and worry of teaching them, and giving them all the content they need, is over.

I feel so elated that my time here is almost gone, but also a sense of wonder at home much I have learned during this year.

Not one of the students in the classes taken from me have improved in their results from what I gave them. SO much for the others being 'far-superior' teachers (my words, not theirs). Hear this VFE. And while you're at it, lose half your body weight and your knees might not be such a problem. 

So, I can move on in confidence knowing that I am on the right track as a teacher. Bastards.

Pretty soon, the Year 10 Multi-modal Presentation Assessment will be over and done, marked and reports done. 

After that it will be just baby-sitting until Nov 27 when they leave. 

So good to contemplate not caring about kids any more.

I just feel excited for a less-stressed future, for ME. All I have to do until the end is babysit really.
