Friday letters 20-12-13

Dear School,
You're good to me and I love lots of what I do at you but OH, how glad I am that we are going on a break from each other. I think we're spent too much time together recently!

Dear Work colleagues who have left,
Oh I am so sad about you leaving. I will miss your company. L- you have been a great colleague and I am sorry I feel like that all you ever seem to hear out of my mouth is when I am moaning about pesky students! Thank you for your sincere, kind comment about my teaching. I love your honesty in saying what you did! F- I cannot believe you are leaving!!! Why did you only tell me today!!!??? I will miss you and I am sad we didn't have the time to produce a musical together like I was hoping. Let's stay in touch!

Dear makers of Shrek,
I had SUCH a nice morning watching your film. It is highly entertaining and it meant that instead of marking year 5 work, I was somehow rendered unable to be efficient. Instead, I enjoyed the film with my year 1's!

Dear Children who gave me cards,
I have enjoyed the 30 different spellings of my new married name that I have received adorning Christmas cards. Some of these are truly inventive and some of them highly amusing. Full credit for using your various blending strategies!!! I have compiled a list of these to send to my in-law family, so they may enjoy the various spellings of our name. Not experienced such merriment since my school days of Krenza, Krenzi, Crenza, Carensa, Carenza, Karenza, Karensa etc.

Dear KS2 children complete,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your amazing singing yesterday at the church!!! I was sooo proud of you singing so in tune and enthusiastically and for the super drumming club and recorder ensemble. You are absolute stars and I am so proud of you. I know I throw really hard songs at you, but you always manage to pick them up and sing with gusto and confidence! Here's to a new year of exploring exciting new music! Oh and sorry for being ratty when you all bombarded me with questions all at once. I am not super human and can only do one thing at once, especially when I am trying to set up! Let's be honest, you could have answered your own questions or looked more carefully for what you were missing!

Dear washing machine,
WHY? Why do you insist upon somehow producing a pool of water in you for no reason whilst you sit dormant?!!! Surely wetting yourself is not good for you! Dear CBC,
Oh heck, we have to tidy this big mess, find presents, somehow pack and get up to London for sibling meeting in 24 hours!!! Eeeeeeek. Now WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Ian Clarke,
Thank you for writing such funky flute music! I wish you were still my flute teacher. I look forward to tackling 'Hatching aliens' this holiday!

Dear J and WOMOTM,
Yay, I can't wait to come and spend Christmas with you!!! I've missed you!! Hope we get some lovely walks and a Christmas carol service or two?!

Dear Bloggy darlings,
Thank you for your lovely comments this week. You have said some lovely and kind things and I cherish each and every comment you leave!! It's always exciting coming home and checking my e-mail to find new comments!!!

Dear God,
Thank you for making everything go so well this week and keeping me going despite not being totally well. You do so much for me.

I am joining in with Ashley Slater's Friday Letters. I forgot how fun it is to write! If you decide to write any Friday letters, please leave me a link in the comments box, I love reading these! xx

  4. What a lovely post. It totally sums up that super Christmassy feeling you only get in a primary school. I've been married for more than 30 years and each new batch of children seem to invent new ways of spelling our surname. We've had years of fun with that one!!! Have a wonderful Christmas xxx

  5. A lovely post. My name gets some good spelling attempts too, I love it, though I have really missed being part of a school this year as I haven't had any cards from children this year!

  6. I love these posts, they're always so uplifting and I'm glad you're feeling a lot more relaxed as the school term is over now, I think all the students and teachers breathed a sigh of relief! - Tasha xxx
