I’m feeling CRABBIT!!

I’m in need of buying one of these mugs to bandish at people in general, as they’d then know I’m a grump!

A fuse went in the heating last night and so we were feeling chilly first thing. There’s nothing worse than making a decision to send the children home, as it causes so much hassle for parents, the children and the local authority and its hard for our staff too when they are ready for children for the day. However even with fast boosted heating, we were still  shivering in the afternoon. The staff in the school however are made of hardy stuff and beavered away all day with their jackets, scarves and by blowing regularly on their fingers. They’re real troopers. All those things we try to fit in got done, bits of planning, photocopying, making resources etc. You suddenly realise when you have no children in just how much work staff are squeezing into their busy schedules. So anyway, not just crabbit but in a fankle first thing too! But the builders, council helpers etc were fabulous and sorted out the problem very quickly.
