It's a week into the new academic year.
A slightly challenging start and thankful for the grace and strength in keeping things going so far.
Due to some changes in regulations, a few seasoned teachers were delayed in returning and some new hires were rejected a permit. Short of staff, some of us have to double-up as substitutes while doing our own work too.
I liked being back in the classroom teaching P5 and P6 Math. The kids are lovely and keen to learn. Despite this being a last-minute arrangement, it did cause me to reflect about the implementation of the initiatives we have been talking about.
Meanwhile, as I enter into my second year in Stamford, I must remind myself to consider the proactive plans that need to be put in place too.
