Welcome back every one, we hope you had a wonderful holiday, and are ALL ready for work. get those legs moving.

Let it all begin again!! Welcome back everyone!
We have lots of new staff starting this year!

hi everyone, welcome back.
Yes, I had a wonderful break - time away from here, and time with family. And a little get away without the kids.
So here we are.....

Has anyone else's school called this week WEEK 0, with week 1 next week?

No we are week 1, same as the D of E Calender

Hi everyone,

Welcome back. Hope everyone had a wonderful holidays.

I'm back, but I'm definitely not into it yet! Maybe tomorrow...

71 days till end of term!!! Oh dear that's a bit negative

328 until the end of the year, sound awful.

...but who's counting?

Ah yes - I love the counting! I will put that on my computer.
Had too good a break - so was not ready to return.. minding grandsons, crocheting [ did lots of Coral for the Northern Territory Coral Reef Project ] and had a week away at Mungindi.
where is Mungindi you ask? On the border between Qld and NSW - about 1.5 hours drive NW from Moree.. about 650 kms drive from Newcastle. Great town, lovely people, cheap rent - definitely want to go back there.. Two pubs - Jolly Swagman and Two Mile; RSL; Coffee Shop, hospital, two cop shops [QLD NSW] , two primary schools and one High School - wonder if they need a Science Assistant?
and it is pronounced MUNG -IN - DIE - [the locals get upset if people say it the same as the end of bindi] AND they have the most amazing cat-heads there - they went right through the sole of my Crocs, my thongs, my joggers.. I reckon you need 30 mm soles to rise above it.
oh how I wish I - ahhhh - well I need to live so it is off to work I go

sunray, i think we drove through there on our way to Kingaroy - I drove to Moree, and we swapped drivers.

Has anyone else had time to scratch themselves yet?
I missed lunch on friday, so took the opportunity to have a tea break today!

hey,

Yes back into it, we had week zero last week but mostly staff and faculty meetings with some very boring IT stuff. Hope you all have a great first week back and I look forward to hearing all your great advice this year.
