Hello

Just wanted to check that you know that lillies are poisonous to cats - I think it is the pollen.

I knew that, and I am also severely allergic to them, even if they have they polleny bits removed:eek: :eek:

Spud - it was the best lie in of the year!!!

How on earth can anyone justify keeping schools open this late into July? There ought to be a law.:mad:

Sparkly stickers, now I never thought of that - I wonder if I could add them into my new rewards programme??? Thank you.:beer:

I'll be thinking of you and the cruelty that is working into the twenties in July!!

Take care,

Tilly, not only am I working till Friday, but year 6 are having a leavers disco on Friday night, until 10pm.

Unfortunately, as I have a daughter in year 6, I have to go :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

So, I will be in school until 10pm on the last day of term, good ehh

I did all the on the phone stuff last week and went in today.The girl has accepted that I don't want to work in retail, or in public where pupils might see me as I can't be doing with the hassle.The interview today just went over all the stuff already covered on the phone, as well as chatting about how i'll go about seeking work etc :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I have had such a laugh reading the posts on here, especially from Petite Anglaise so thanks a lot! I'm a teacher too (although been ill for almost 2 years now) so can relate!

Might give the matched betting a go, although I promise to read it all v carefully first.

What is it about teachers and books? I used to be a Waterstones addict, til Benefits curbed my habit! Still get twitches when I walk past though, lol! Anyone else got the stationery fetish too??

I'm not a teacher (yet!) but I LOVE buying files and new pens and kinds of stationary! and dont get me started on books x

I'm fairly new to this site, so much to take in!

I work in a school as a nursery nurse in a reception class, just wanted to thank you for all your hints and tips on this thread, their fab!

Another teacher here, with absolutely no spending money. So I'll be mostly sleeping (I have so much to catch up on) and planning for the new term.

Prudent

I thought I would say hello too. Another teacher here - complete with cats that throw up when fed the wrong food

Try the comps board. I find it really de-stressing after teaching, especially the banter. Look at my signature to see how much I have won already this year - and just about to add around a further £300 to that once I have added up the value of a hotel break I won last week


Edit: wins this month - to give you a guide:

£25 HMV Giftcard
£25 Moonpig voucher
Book: The Land that disappeared
Virgin Hot air balloon flight
Harry potter book, goody back and invite to the launch at Waterstones.
Gabor Abina shoes
2 night New Forest hotel break
Bottle of heather cream liqueur
Dr Who lunch pack
Mince cookbook
Strawberry shortcake doll set

Oh, fellow teachers, hope your enjoying your hols. Just checked this thread for updates, even though I dont have anything to add. Just good to see other teachers on here. Just been to pub with my friend who is excited about her PGCE in Sept!
