Alright but have you guys ever thought that maybe you were simply born in the wrong country :-P ?????
Maybe French teachers think the quality of their work is sooo good that it only requires working a four-day week !!
Edit Oh I forgot to add something - did I mention the fact that it's the start of the Easter holidays on Friday ??? (another 2 weeks of doing nothing, yay!) |

whenever friends of mine have either been teaching in other countries or go abroad for school, all these do is go to class for like a week and then have 2 off!
Lets see, we had a day at Thanksgiving, 2 weeks at Christmas, 2 days at Easter, 1 day for Victoria Day (closest monday to May 24), and a week in March (elementry and highschool) or February (university).
Well, sometimes I think I was born in the wrong country, but Im fairly certain I was meant to be Canadian. Wonder what the world would be like if my ancestors had stayed put. |

| I agree, Dee. The kids are not at all thrilled about going back to school after spring break. Two more months to go...only one day off left. |

- gossiping girls

- church gossips are the worst.
Rant over! |
