Weekends are always busy for me, but this one was perhaps the most hectic ever! Last week I was asked to think up some fun activities for the school's tenth anniversary and they were all implemented. So, for example, this weekend we've had 3500 students playing a treasure hunt game, tracking down eight animal posters hidden around the school which together spell out "Robert's School of Languages".
And each class has also been competing to build the highest "Jenga" tower, (representing building the school ever larger). My classes only managed up to 27 but I was told the overall record was 33!
Then, for older students, there was a multiple-choice quiz about the school's history (...our school has taught over 15,000 students over the ten years, and has a current staff of 95!)

Each class was also tasked with creating a poster reflecting their thoughts about the school, plus there's also been a staff competition to design a new logo for the school.
So it was a bit of a breather to simply monitor an exam for one of my classes [see below], especially as the other two today were "Open Classes" with parents observing their kids being taught and then quizzing the teacher (me)! I'm so looking forward to the next two weeks of holiday!
