This week was a BIG week. Yep, with a capital ! It certainly has not helped with me getting sick. :( "Just a cold"...turns out that I would lose my voice too! Oh well. The show MUST go on as they say...
Our school puts on "Adventure Week" for our senior students who dont go on school camp. The rest of the Education Support classes were invited to go along too. On Wednesday, we went to AQWA with all 30 students and 20 teachers and assistants. The weather was beautiful and the students all had a fabulous time. Luckily for me, my well organised assistants had sorted everything and all I had to do was walk around with my assigned student. Thankfully for me, I got the cutest student who is also in a pram.
Thursday was the day I was assigned. For eight weeks my assistants and I worked really hard to organise an adventure around the book "Possum Magic" by Mem Fox. "Possum food" was organised and we mapped out various activities that took each student to "stations" were they could earn badges. It was a fantastic day and thanks to the many prayers that were said, the rain held off. PHEW ! I had NO voice left at the end of the day but it was a huge success. I'm just glad its OVER.
Today is day 3 of Adventure Week. My boss determined that I looked and sounded sick enough to have today off...so I'm updating the blog, reading my book and watching very old movies on TV. Not a bad way to spend the day. :)
