Day 301 - Girls And Boys

Thursday February 11th

Just one lesson today which was bliss. Got that out the way and then enjoyed my Thursday afternoon, pottering around the staff room and enjoying the sensation of not having to teach tomorrow.

Had a chat with some of the Year 8 pastoral staff as I left, asking for advice on a couple of the kids playing up. It was a good conversation - at this age the more developed boys and girls are beginning to notice each other and there are some elaborate games going on between them. 13 years old. You can't tell them they have all the time in the world for that stuff, they want to get on with it now, even in my lesson
