There is great excitement in the school because tomorrow is
‘Bonfire Night’ and many of the children are really looking forward to it. This
follows the excitement that we had on Monday as it was Halloween and all the
children were really looking forward to going ‘Trick or Treating’. This event
always makes me feel old because it never happened when I was younger and it
reminds me of how much everything has changed since I was a child. When I start
thinking how much better things were when I was younger I will know that I am
really old.
As usual the children have settled well back into school
life after their holiday. Of course this is a very good term for them because
so many good things happen in it and it will not be long before people start to
mention the ‘C’ word. We have not talked about it yet in school although I do
have to admit that some classes have started preparations for it so it will not
be long before it is in the general conversation of the children. It seems to
come round quicker every year but that could be another sign that I am getting
older.
I have certainly noticed a change in the weather since I
came back to school and I have seen frost for the first time this year. I was
amazed though that some children have been in school without a coat. Unless the
weather is really bad we do send them out at every playtime and lunchtime and
they will need some outdoor garment for this. I know some children say they do
not feel the cold and they may not do when they have been running around for a
while but you can never tell how the weather is going to change so please make sure
they have suitable clothes for the weather conditions.
That is all for now. I
will be in school for a lot of the weekend because of the firework display so I
hope to see many of you then. If you want to see me I will be serving at the
barbeque stand on Saturday night. Rain is not forecast but it is going to be
cold so make sure you wrap up warmly.
