SUMMER HOLIDAYS! 

Friday @ 1:00pm we had the last assembly of the school year and by 1:30 pm the 2010 School Year was over!  Reports are done, boxes are packed and I have once more relocated to another classroom.

It was a year of lots of highs and some very sad times. 

A lot of great moments when you get to be witness to children learning and growing...that's what takes me back year after year.

Along the way, I have made some new friends as well as honouring  a couple of friends as they retired.

And I am now half way through a Master Of Literacy at Monash University.

So here I am on the first day of the Summer Holidays. In the past, I have been known to have been known to have had an afternoon siesta in the pergola.

This year though the energy levels seem to be different ( how, I don't know!) and today we have been out and about looking for a new bike helmet for the Husband.

The other tradition I have on the first day of the Summer Holidays is to buy myself is to read something that is NOT related to education.

So today these were packed away 

and I treated myself to a couple of quilt magazines to add to the other "compulsory" holiday reading.

As always, all potential reading material has to be approved!
