Nearly There!!!!

I can’t believe how fast time is going at the moment, sooo fast!!! Its already nearly July and we have had half the year!

I passed my final placement this week and have met all the standards and requirements I need to become a qualified teacher! I have 5 more days in school and one final day in college and then I will be finally done with my PGCE, yay!!! All I need now is a job as I still don’t have one but I am sure one will come up eventually somewhere.

I have really enjoyed this placement, teaching Year 6 after their SAT’s is lots of fun and most of the kids in the class are really nice and the challenging ones are good for helping me develop behaviour management strategies.

Time is also going really fast in the countdown to the wedding! I now have a special countdown on here in weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds. Counting down to the second seems to make time go even quicker and in no time at all it will be the 23rd August and I will be getting married, I can’t wait :)

So, I finish here in Lincoln in a week and then I will be moving back home for the last time for the summer. We will also be going to New WIne which I am soo looking forward to, just as long as it isn’t as wet as last year, although it did make it more memorable! After New Wine it is 3 weeks until the wedding so it will be a busy but a very enjoyable summer and I am looking forward to it!

Right, bed time for me as I have a whole day of DT to teach tomorrow which should be interesting!

We have a car!!!!!

Well my big news for the week is that Kieran and I purchased our 1st car yesterday. Below is a photo that Kieran has taken of it.

Its a pretty cool car which does various exciting things! It has automatic headlights and windscreen wipers and a digital dashboard. It also has a cool handbrake which turns itself off when you start moving which is useful, good for hill-starts! I have driven it a couple of times and it is great to drive. It has a funny key thing where you put a card into a slot rather than a key into the car! Another great feature about it is that it has a height adjustable seat which means both me and Kieran can get it in a comfortable position when we drive it!

So there you go, that is our car and our first step to being properly married!!
