Worried that I’m losing the love for this job…just so many challenges all the time - can never have a year with a break from challenging behaviour😒

Still two more weeks left to go of Autumn 1 and then only 1 week off before Autumn 2 starts 😭 September to December are killer months at school 😴 the whole Autumn term is hard!

We do in Reception for most of the year! (Then, in the summer term they start coming in wearing P.E kits like they would in Year 1)
It's just dawned on me that kids no longer get changed for PE at school. They all seem to go in in their PE kit?

I don’t know what schools they’ve been in but I can tell you for a fact we’ve never served fried eggs or coco pops 🀣 Also worrying about the potential amount of food waste to come if children are served chickpeas and lentils when they won’t even eat what’s on the menu now!
Nanny state personified.

For some children, if they don’t like what they’ve been given/chosen by parents, they won’t eat it and be hungry for the rest of the day…which in other ways is way worse. So many more will choose packed lunches now!

Last day of the first full week back (which I’m counting as week 2 🀣) and wow was it a struggle to get up this morning! End of the first week back tiredness has well & truly kicked in…may be asleep all day tomorrow! On the bright side our new EYFS have been amazing this week.🌟

5 online staff training courses done (all on 2x speed to get through them quicker 🀣) crazy we’ve had so much time off over summer but have to have the training certificates done by the end of the first week back! But it’s done and ticked off the list now.πŸ₯³
