holiday, wine and Rwanda.

It's 2 weeks of spring holidays and I'm relaxing. Last term was hard. I was so exhausted, but the end is in sight! Four weeks of teaching, a week or two of revision, exams and that's about it!

I've done more work these holidays than the previous ones. I'm teaching my History class about Rwanda, and researching it has affected me more than I thought it would. I actually stopped sleeping, so I decided I had better stop reading for a while! It's pretty haunting stuff, but I think it's important to teach kids that these things go on in the world and that they're so privileged to live in wealth, freedom and safety.

But I've taken the time to chill out, the weather is finally warm and sunny, so I made a trip with a friend to some gorgeous wineries to taste the local produce. Now I can't wait for Summer.

P.S. the smart board is a hit with my Year 11s! Hopefully it's helping them learn as well!
