Fat man Fat dog soggy trousers

Evening all.

Since my last blog I have attacked new found love of cycling and put it to use to cycle to and from school every day. This is roughly a 20 mile round trip, and am proud to say I have achieved this everyday this week so far- making 80 miles so far this week if i include the trial run.

(SMALL PAUSE FOR APPLAUSE)

What no applause?! Well i'm chuffed at anyrate... especially as it has PISSED it down yesterday and today, and i still cycled in and back from school. Today i particularly enjoyed the ride home, as i took it easy and just cruised all the way. Because of this i looked around a lot more than usual and saw things that worried me but also... the world's fattest man walking the worlds fattest dog!... was a wonderful sight, as they both wobbled along wheezing, drenched to the skin! hahaha!

Worrying sights were a small child wondering around by himself in the dusk and rain, and very anti-white graffiti written on a fence i passed. made me a little scared and i rode a bit faster for while.

This friday is INSET day which ends off a fairly rubbish week at school, for various reasons.. been a bit all over the place, EID was yesterady/today depending on which mosque we a asked, so kids have been off school - reducing class sizes to 12 or 13, -should be good, but the kids who are in school just resent having to work. RUBBISH! Today us lot in my year group tried to aleviate this by sacking off numeracy and having singing practice for harvest festival in a few weeks.

After a very long evening spent trawling through old hymn book to find a traditional harvest song (don;t suggest autumn days... i really wanted that one, but another yeargroup bagsed it!) me and the other two teachers gave up and decided that 'cauliflowers fuffy' was as traditional as we could go and so set about getting yrics and backing tracks. WE then presented this to year 6 today and after an intitial cry of "ugh.... we sang that in nursery" They attacked it with true gusto and were actually Very good! we have also decided that we will perform a small sketch to go with it- along the lines of the california raisins/ munch bunch. We are going to make a band of vegetables (read here kids in costumes) and they will perform a song. After much discusion with the kids, we came up with 'Scouting for Veg' and they are going to sing "Veg is Lovely, Veg is Lovely...etc"WE thought this was very funny and got slightly over excited and delerious at one point!

Anyhoo, its time to sign off as tmrw is school photo day and i have to get my beauty sleep. (no sniggering please!)

NITE!

INTI xx
