It was wonderful to meet everyone the next day in the staffroom!
I met the new principal and a few minutes later, Hayley met her on skype! What a great surprise to see her there. The staff and some cute kids of the staff asked her questions. It is a wonderful staff and I can see why she would miss all her very special friends. It is sunny and it has been wonderful to wake up with the sun unlike the northern hemisphere that has more moonlight hours. My colleagues are all very warm and welcoming. Everyone took a few minutes to introduce themselves and I think I will know all their names very shortly....it's the 840 childrens' names I'm worried about remembering. My amazing team of specialists (visual arts and music) said it is very difficult to learn all their names. I chatted and roughly prepared our first week with my wonderful new teaching buddy. Thank you for sharing Lisa, Hayley! She is as awesome as you said!!
One teacher even had his cute little boy wear a Toronto Maple Jersey to welcome me! Loved it!!!
I set up my room and went home feeling that it will be a wonderful year!!! I will learn a lot!
