Internet disasters this week

Don't you just hate it when technology fails? Why is it that when report comments need to be uploaded to the reports program, when staff require you to print marks that need to be imported into the reports program and when you are out of school for a day and all of your lessons require students to access their learning website, that the entire network crashes... and why does this extend beyond a day... into Tuesday?

I feel that in so many ways, we have progressed in our profession. I believe that we are so much more accountable and technology has allowed for much greater scrutiny and transparency of what we do. Furthermore, when the technology fails, it sets me back a whole two days.

Hopefully, what I planned to do on Tuesday, i will now be able to do on Thursday.

Bring on the long weekend!

On a happier note - my orchids look divine and yes Melinda, pictures will come, I promise!

The photos of the orchids on this blog (a Sydney-sider gardening one) reminded me a lot of yours!

Hope you're enjoying the long weekend :)

Hi Adla
