Namaste


Today I am leaving on a jet plane and heading to a little old country by the name of India!

India is a place that I really have never been interested in visiting, until I got to China (a place that I NEVER EVER thought I would end up).  So when the school offered to pay my way, accommodation and course fees I was in!!!

So in an hour we leave (8 of us) to head to Mumbai (Bombay) to do an IB PYP course - for all those non teachers - it means learn more about the international curriculum and how to use it in our classrooms.  I am really looking forward to actually having the course under my belt, complete with IB certificate, as it is a MAJOR help when looking for top paying and quality jobs worldwide!  Not that I am looking anytime soon.

On the topic of teaching, yesterday I had to present to our staff BY MYSELF!!!! And by staff I mean 77ish staff, looking right at me!!!  So not cool but anything to practice for my next role as a principal (haha, so NOT what I am intereseted in doing EVER!)

I am not sure that India is ready for me but I am sure ready for it, call it escapism, child like excitment or whatever you want but.....

"I'm going to India for freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

Excited much?

Arohanui,
Love Amy xo
