bowl into the fray.
Back to work in the morning - another 4:30am start. The drive across the county (Plymouth to Ilfracombe) is a long one and it certainly isn't something that I would have ever seen myself doing, well, certainly not every day anyway. However, I have to say, I look forward to it - it helps me to focus on what is important for the day and gives me a lot ( A LOT) of planning time. The villages come and go, Mary Tavy, Hatherleigh, Sourton, Meeth, Merton...the list goes on and on. Meeth always makes me laugh - there is a sign that just says "Best Kept Village 1997" . A proud boast indeed - I always start thinking about success criteria at that point in the journey, no idea why.
And finally to Ilfracombe. My classroom looks out on the Bristol Channel and across to Swansea - it is an amazing view. I am cetainly lucky to be able to work in such an environment - I have a new found admiration for lighthouse keepers.
Anyway, the summer term beckons - full of hope of exams success, activities day and quiet corridors at break times.
The drive home always centres me. The sign at Meeth only gets a shake of my head as I leave my beautiful North Devon life for another day. Back to Plymouth. Home. Ready to do it all again tomorrow.
