School life

So in Japan every April sees a grand shuffle, where teachers are moved around to new schools far and wide. The basic idea is that teachers in bad schools get a break, new teachers get to experience different schools, older teachers don't become to stagnant and relationships between A.L.T's and teachers get destroyed.
well okay probably not the third one and its not quite so dramatic as that sounds, but still it means that two teachers who I've worked well with for the last 2 years will be moved on to pastures new. In total 15 (out of 40) teachers are moving which is apparently a big number for any school and whilst most can't speak english very well (sample dialouge by a P.E teacher "I have belly of beer!" ) they've all tried to make me feel welcome and will be missed.

Anyway this means that everyone is currently busy cleaning their desks and spaces whilst I have decided to use my time to make this blog (sorry.) Although I have found the mind numbing joy of shredding documents, getting so carried away I think I've just lost my birth certificate. A friend of mines cleaning job at school was to collect and then burn all of the old books at school although my suggestions to dance around the flames chanting didn't get used.
