SarahJo Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Enjoy your hols girls. I finished work at school 10 days ago - and boys have just finished today. Just need a bit more in the way of dry weather and the fun can begin BIG TIME. From my perspective - no more uniform to iron no more packed lunches to make every evening no more shouting "hurry up" in the morning no more school runs in the rain no more fights about homework to be done All the above and I get to enjoy time with my boys - although the novelty will wear off at some point. Happy summer hols Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 ok, and from a teachers perspective no more "I dont get it!!" no more miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss schools out for summer (very wet!!!) cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gem_Seb Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 From a different perspective! No more school traffic to fight with every morning on the way to work!! No more listening to the neighbours constantly shouting at their kids to get out of bed or they will be late for school each morning!!

Space Chick Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yey, less traffic on the roads during rush hour (although Friday pm traffic will be hideous now as everyone tries to get weekend breaks to the seaside near me) I wish I was still in school I've got to go back to work on Monday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Its alright for some! We've still got another 3 days and loads of work and we have huge amounts of summer work ... like thats going to be done This afternoon in Physics we had to do exam questions, so all went to the toilet (with a stop off at the chicks and we stayed there for about an hour ) We had to answer general knowledge questions in Maths so we could watch a video next lesson, bearing in mind were 17 ... The Lion King (but we were all singing it for the rest of the lesson!) ... in Chemistry we want to watch Flubber, because its kind of related.

kitbag Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yay summer! Although I'm in year 11 and have already had 3 weeks off, so had technically already had a third of my summer holiday! Well done for your test Laura! Good luck for the practical!! Lewis - your never too old for the lion king! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Lewis - you're never too old for the lion king! I got my brother to download it earlier because the video doesn't work anymore! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 My three have got another week before they break up (ED breaks up next Thursday at 12pm! and the other two on Friday at the usual time). I'm in two minds about holidays. Its great not having to get up, do the sandwiches etc etc, but after a while, I find I just need some time without the kids. But then again, in a few years they will all be off out with their mates all the time and then I'll be saying I wish they were at home more ps The Lion Kind is an excellent film and I agree you are never too old to enjoy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 I love the Lion King I remember we watched it in year 7 and my best friend started crying when Mufasa died...she's never been able to live that down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 My two break up officially on Wednesday. This week is Activities Week. DS is off to Paris with Year 9 tomorrow and DD is playing golf for three days. She is the only girl out of sixteen students so is a little nervous. However, she tells me that the coolest teachers are with her so she is happy about that. I love the holidays. Even on the days that I work, the mornings are so relaxing with teenagers still abed!
