Cold Feet

A Teacher's Tale

Ralph Sadleir School

Today, I made a visit to the other main feeder Middle School in Puckeridge. I made a big effort to "re-vamp" my talk and improve it but I think that the consequence was that I was a little longer than planned. The pupils are keen and interested and seemed to find it engaging. I still feel that a talk like this cries out for questions and answers, however, I'm going to have much more to say when I have actually completed the trip and then we can probably have much more substantial talks and lots of new pictures.

I have started to get e-mails from students at Edwinstree who obviously think that I have gone already! Lots of questions about huskies and penguins. I feel a bit of a fraud, knowing that I certainly wont see the former and am unlikely to see the latter (except, possibly, in Chile).
