Not much has happened except we actually spent a full month at school! I’m as shocked as you are!

I say we spent a full month at school, but that’s not including a couple of long weekends in KL!

School is going well. We’ve been given new and improved timetables which means we are now working double the time we have been. Unfortunately, it is exam time just now again so we’re back to having not much to do.

We have hosted a couple of activity days; one for Form 1 and one for Form 2. They both went well, but I strongly suggest never having 150 12 year olds in the same room at the same time! We did a number of things with them; general knowledge quizzes, dressing them up in bin bags and advertising the school are just a few of the things we did.

It was World Teachers Day on Tuesday and we were treated to a whole load of food in the staff room, a chocolate bar from some students, and being wished a ‘Happy Teachers Day’ by everyone pupil I passed! It was nice seeing how much respect and appreciation the students have for their teachers – you definitely don’t see that at home!

We head off to the Perenthian Islands on the 26^th of this month before flying over to Borneo. We have planned to visit an orangutan sanctuary, but I’ll tell you all about that when we come back!

‘Summer’ has arrived here; there’s rain, there’s thunder, there’s lightning but it is also 30+ degrees and hell! Can’t remember what it feels like to not sweat!!

Ramadan starts the day we leave for our holiday so that means everyone will be fasting when we come back, and we’re expected to as well… Wish me luck!!

That’s all from here. As I said, not much has happened. I hope the Scottish drought is fixed soon but if you’re missing the rain, feel free to join me out here!
