The Daily Grind

On account of my “sheep-counting” last night, tonight’s entry will be short!

We had a great day.

Our returning pupils looked keen-faced and well turned out in their new uniforms. The day went calmly and quietly. Those pupils I had a chance to speak to were glad to be back; full of tales of their exciting holidays (the locations seem to get more exotic year on year) and looking forward to their new classes and teachers.

Our new P1’s came in without a murmur (all 28 of them), and what seemed like an army of Parents, Grandparents and Friends took us up on our offer of a cuppa after settling them in their classroom.

A good, new crowd of Parents who clearly enjoy socialising. I’m looking forward to getting to know them as the year progresses.

Another bright spot was only having to re-timetable a couple of things so far! I can only hope that this is the last of it…
