Woo hoo! It's the October Week! Looking forward to having a week off. I'll be heading down to the Lake District on Sunday for a relaxing week of hill walking, drinking and eating (and no doubt I'll do some running) with some friends.

The week turned out OK despite Tuesday's blip. I marked the tests of my 2 third year classes and they generally did OK, so they must be learning something. Today was a non-uniform day as well as the last day before a holiday, so I abandoned all ideas of trying to teach anything as there was 2 reasons for the kids to be hyper. I went over the test with my third year class, made both my first year calsses make posters on recycling, and took my second years outside to see how many decibels they could scream into a volume measuring thingy (they are just starting work on sound so there was a reason!).

Anyway, tomorrow I'll (hopefully) watch my team win, see my lady friend, and then on Sunday I'll run a cross country race then head to the Lakes. Canny wait!
