Next Week

Another good week. On Monday about 20 students went to the Museum and the Library to speak to people about their careers. Both places were excellent with the staff giving great details and thoughts. One HUGE statement they all made was to the question "Do you love your job?". All as quick as anything said Yes! This idea lead onto to following your passion and what you love doing. There is an old saying if you love what you do you never work a day in your life.

Tuesday had the Young Leaders motivated and encouraged by the speakers at the young leaders day in Christchurch. They came home buzzing and will present their day at a school assembly in the near future.

Remember this week there is a Teacher Only Day on Monday. We are having a course regarding how to improve maths. Following that on Tuesday we will be meeting here in teams to discuss what we are doing and how can we improve our teaching for the students.

We have three visitors coming in next week for our career topic. On Tuesday we have Mrs Flynn, Wednesday sees Mrs Dobbs come in and Thursday sees Mr Sisson in the class. It is great to see these parents come in, bring some reading and writing and their uniform and talk about what they do. I will be making contact with others for the following weeks.

We also have another artist visiting us next Wednesday. She is a story teller and a professional speaker. It should be entertaining and worthwhile.

ONE LAST THING THAT I HAD MISSED...  NEXT FRIDAY IS APPARENTLY 'HUG A GINGA DAY'. I HAVE HAD A FEW ASKING IF THEY MAY HAVE THE DAY OFF DUE TO THEIR HAIR COLOUR. SADLY IT IS NOT RECOGNISED AS A REAL HOLIDAY... SO NO DAY OFF.
