At the end of the Incredibles, another baddie turns up - a mole, called the Underminer, who says "I am beneath you, but nothing is beneath me!" or something very similar. Its one of my favorite movie lines, but I don't think I can really explain why except for the obvious cleverness of it. Today we had a professional development day and at the end we had to pick one word that described what we had got out of the day. My word in truth was disruptive and it reminds me of the Underminer. I had another nice word which had some truth to trot out if I got picked on...
It was good to see the staff again, and we got some really good results from NCEA compared to previous years. Some very disappointing news that our Deputy Head Boy is changing schools - I was looking forward to teaching him this year.
One of our neighbor's mother has died, so I am off to do some baking for them. They belong to a large family and a very enthusiastic church community and something to hand out with cups of tea might be handy.
