work, koalas, pythons and kangas...

I decided to have another push at the supply teaching and contacted a few schools just outside of the Sunshine Coast area.  Seems to have come good and 2 schools have called me several times over the last couple of weeks for work.  I actually worked 4 days this week which is brilliant. There's a bit of a flu epidemic here in Queensland at the moment which seems to be working in my favour on the teaching front! Funny though, as found myself teaching not just English, but; golf (!), German (!), maths (!!) and History.  Yesterday, whilst 'teaching' golf, we were interrupted by a family of kangaroos on the oval.  The joey became separated from its mother, who was getting a bit frantic.  The students managed to persuade the joey to jump the school fence to be reunited with mum. Good fun. 
Jeff had an animal-filled week in Noosa too.  He spotted a koala in the tree near where he's working and one of his work-mates had to 'capture' a rogue python from the building next door!
