A note to ms. Garwood

I have mentioned once or twice how much I love teaching. I have such a laugh with the kids and actually think they learn something along the way. But it is not a selfless job, not at all. It has dawned on me recently that I probably secretly (well not now) do it to boost my own self worth. So possibly my motives for becoming a teacher were not as pure as I once thought. Either way receiving a poem from one of my students (attached to an assignment) is lovely and so appreciated after the longest most tiring term ever (they must sense I am at breaking point!).

I mean, really how sweet. I hear so many negative comments about the youth of the day, I must say I know quite a few amazing ones.
