What did you do today
at the school?
I oversaw the Calthorpe students do their athletics rotation
exercise mixed with lots of ‘fun and games’ in preparation for the inter school
athletics extravaganza which is taking place on Thursday. We finished off with
a big cricket match involving staff and students from Calthorpe and P.I assumed
the role of umpire.
Was it how you
expected?
Pretty much actually, but in a nice way. I was expecting
positivity. I got positivity and I like think I left some positivity. There
clearly are fininacial difficulties at this school but they seem to cope and
manage to cater for their students.
Give me a difference
between this school and Calthorpe:
Just 1? The size 200 to 1200 and age range, between 5 and
15. It’s impossible to plan lessons for all these ages. It requires a lot of
flexibility.
Were there any funny
moments?
Let’s see…The random turning up of students out of the blue
ranging from 5 to 25 at the same time. They wanted to join the ‘festival of
sport’ going on outside. My umpiring was also quite funny.
What are you going to
differently tomorrow, if anything?
Maybe introduce a few more ball games for the older
generation but continue with the athletics with the younger ones.
