Hope someone can reassure me. I'm returning to work after a long illness on a phased return and the head said I had to carry on sending sick notes in during this time so that he will be paid for extra cover.

I can't believe it's only Monday. I've had a terrible day with my class. Is there a new moon or full moon or something today? I only have 7 children in my class but they have all been on one today. 1 spent the entire day screaming and slapping staff and/or pulling down his pad and trousers. Another spent the day scratching staff and pupils, turning on the taps full blast even though they were fastened so tight that we were struggling to turn them on and also flinging his shoes across the classroom/playground. One refused to have her dinner, kicking and screaming on the floor (she goes on a supported visit every other Monday and thought today was one of those days ). O…

I have completed an application form for a job (closing date is Wednesday) and I am undecided on weither to post it or hand it in to the place Monday afternoon/evening.

Would you think I was mad if I turned up at the school say around 4 pm to hand in the application form? The school is on the way home from where I am working at the moment. :wacko: I really want this nursery nurse post especally as it is in a school foundation stage class (nursery).

As some of you know I have had a couple of interviews in the last day or so. :rolleyes: Well I went to an interview today, the postion is a room leader for the over 2's room after the 12 weeks trial as per usual, so starting as a nursery nurse. :unsure: I feel I did really well overall with the questions with confidence.

I think I must have left a good impresssion because............. Within a couple of hours le…
