First of all a big thankyou to everyone who's made the visit back home so enjoyable, it was great to see you again, and to take a pause from the busyness of london life. I hadn't realised the pace I was going at until the train got out of the buildings and into the green space and I took a huge breath I hadn't realised I was holding.
It is amazing what being in a different place for a while does to your perspective of familiar places - Romsey suddenly seemed small and cosy, and really slow.
So, its been a while since my last post, what has happened? *thinks*
...We are really starting to get to know the young people, and a few of us had a breakthrough moment last week in In Class Support - Byron who started acting like a bit of a terror is now behaving really well, and we were even talking a bit. So often support teachers are just in and out, and the students never really get to know them - they are just another adult who isnt there for them, and i think it is really good to have in class support that is constant throughout the year. Now that Byron is beginning to realise I'm going to be there every week he is engaging more, which is really fantastic to see, coz i know he'll get more out of school if hes concentrating, and also coz i get to know him and it makes my job easier!
mkay, running out of ideas right now, i will update this post when i'm back in london~
