Everyone at the school has been split into team houses, blue, green, orange, red and yellow (both teachers and students) and every other Monday we all come to school dressed in our team colours and there is a school assembly during the last lesson where we all come together and there is a competition. Previously there has been a dance off, a loudest team chant and today was musical chairs. The children really get into it and each teacher can give points to a student at any time for doing something good, like helping another student without being asked, doing a good job on an assignment or getting involved in a class debate. Some of the teachers go above and beyond with their team colours and it can be really fun. I am in red house (unfortunately I only have 1 top that is red, I desperately need to go shopping for more red items).
So today has been a bit of a slow day, I have felt really tired all day and feeling low. After school Doreenda took me out for dinner and we went to try the new German bar that had opened. It was really nice inside but the menu was very limited and quite expensive so we left and went to the Italian instead which was really nice. We had a good catch up then I came home for an early night.
