Well, I managed to survive to half term. The hardest part is over, settling the new children in, bonding as a new team and teaching all new things and routines.
The children have really turned the corner and although they are a very young class they are keen to learn new things and are becoming better at listening. They particularly enjoyed making gingerbread men with Kelly yesterday. Well-done Kelly you can bake for me any time. Fantastic Kelly and Carole your first half term as a classroom assistants has been a great success.
I am looking forward to the Christmas concert and meeting all their parents properly next term.
P.S Laurence and I should be in Barcelona at the moment ....Oh well Loughton will do!
