Yep 5 am!


Yep 5 am!

So I started my teaching this week and yep...I got the school where you have to get up at 5 am, to catch the bus at 6 am, to drive an hour to get to school. But at least I get to see some amazing sun rises!
It’s a nice little school in Tweed heads about 45 minutes away over the boarder into New South Wales!
I am teaching in a grade one class, its nice and the kids are fun, but I can tell already I have one little boy that is going to be my buddy the whole time I’m there. Ky. He seems special, like ADD kind of special. A nice little challenge for me I guess!
My teacher is pretty nice, she's been teaching a long time so it will be good to learn from her. The school is really laid back, you should have seen all us city kids coming in on the first day. High heels, skirts, blouses etc, I mean we all looked dressed to the nines, then we met the staff in their surf clothes, shorts, t-shits and runners...I mean this is my kind of teaching gear!
For the next month we go into the school only on Thursdays and then after exams we do 4 weeks straight. That should be interesting. Ill be asleep by 7pm every night!

Lots of homework to get done this weekend, Easter break is coming up and then all our projects are due. And I don’t want to be doing any of the work on our sailing trip around the Whit Sunday Islands.
