My last carefree year of school also begins tomorrow, although once you get back it isn't that bad, just not that great.

School is important for your future. If you study hard you can get an office job like me and spend half your day looking at nzff.

:lol:

Being a teacher has its perks you know! We get the same holidays as students!
My students dont start till next Monday so i thank nzff for helping me through this hard week. ^_^

I started last Thursday- Am I being ripped off? :D

We did finish on November 30th last year, but I'd rather have the time off now with better weather. We've got a 6th form common room! It has a boling water thing which means noodles for lunch :lol: >buck<

But more importantly, Boiling Water Fights!! :ph43r: :D

I started on Thursday as well Tom. Some other think they're being ripped off - hah! :P

We went in last Wednesday to confirm our courses. We had Thursday in as a proper school day, but half of it was taken up with assemblies and the like. Had a nice long weekend and went back in today, which was a similar story to Thursday, only getting three classes in...

Speaking of classes, what are you guys doing this year? I'm doing English, History, Classics, Calculus and Physics. :)

It's pretty cool being a 7th former though; we get a common room, our own line in the canteen, and get to wear mufti. B-)

We went back on Wednesday for 2 hours, then full day on Friday, this Wednesday off (obviously) But now, every Thurs we start at 10 and still go through till 3:15!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSS :groupwave: 1 hour extra to sleep in!!

I'm in yr 11 this year, doing English, Maths Merit, Science Merit, Metal Work, Graphics and IT.

Anyone doing Metal, I want to make something else rather than the set stuff (we're alouded to) but don't know what to make. I've been googling abit but haven't found anything. I was thinking about a mounted jet engine (not working) but I don't know what to search for to get plans.

Any ideas??

Thanks


Nick
