It's my birthday! Smiles all round!
Students and teachers have been coming up to me all morning, shaking my hand, wishing me a Happy Birthday or saying "Many happy returns for the day!"
I got a card from Ashok - what a sweetheart! I've already told Malay that that means he'll look really bad if he doesn't turn up with one sooner or later...
So tonight's the big night, our end of term performance to mark our last teaching day in school. It's come round quickly, and yesterday we got a real shock that it had been moved up to today when we had been preparing for April 30th...
But a few pep talks with the kids and a lot of hard work in a short space of time and we're there, ready to go. They're coming back to school tonight at 6pm for a couple of practises on the stage before the show starts at 7. Hope the hard work pays off!
Aftershow party doubles as my Birthday Party, so we're looking forward to what we hope will be a really great night :)
