Busy Time!

Well, what a shock I got today: I was aware the weblog was slipping as the end of term starts to get hectic, but I just had a quick look and seen that it was actually April when I last posted! So much for 'at least once a week' that I had aimed for when I started this. Oh well...

Of course, one of the main reasons things are getting busy, is that I am off to Yosemite in just over a weeks time - along with 3 great colleagues (name checks for Gillian Williams, Alice Clubb, and Ciaran Earle) and 21 students. It's an experience I am certainly looking forward to, as I know the pupils are. Now that we are all in the process of packing it has just started to dawn on me how close it actually is! It's quite inspiring to talk to people like Gillian who were on the trip two years ago and see how many good memories they have of Yosemite, Martinez and San Fran. Speaking to Don Ledingham too, it was so obvious how much he enjoyed Yosemite Valley in particular. Don't worry Don - I'll have my camera and be up at the crack of dawn too :-)

Anyway, you can follow our progress at the weblog Alice has set up for the trip. I'm sure it will be a fantastic experience for both staff and pupils' a real trip of a lifetime for many of them.
