First hot air balloon of the season over Tuscany this morning. So quiet and peaceful.

Thatโ€™s my entire world at the moment. Iโ€™m teaching Grade 2 drama and itโ€™s challenging my everything.

Happy Friday. Two weeks to the end of term but we have reports, the secondary play and two primary concerts, our famous staff pub quiz and lots of teaching to get through before we close for the break. #internationaleducation #ibo #siena

Very much in my happy place this morning, making props and scenery in the sunshine as the cast worked on choreography inside. #Addamsfamily #drama #ibo #internationalschoolofsiena

Operations Strangle & Diadem saw allied forces trying to block German supply lines from Siena further into Italy. Nazi soldiers occupied many houses in this area; some housed local Jewish families in hiding. Today G9 were in Berlin learning about the history of Jews in Germany. Making connections.

So good to get out of the office and into the real world with G9. Risk taking, physics and problem solving at Saltalbero, Tuscany. #IBMYP #ISSiena

Where in Penzance? I would have enjoyed hearing your keynotes. PZ is home when not teaching internationally- I just rode the train the other way.

As a teacher, school dinners morphed into school lunches somewhere in the โ€˜90s. Itโ€™s so hard to resist a free lunch that I often eat my main meal with a few hundred teenagers. It never felt healthy but now I have a Tuscan lunch- nutritionally controlled, organic, lots of pasta and veg and cheese. ๐ŸคŒ๐Ÿป
