several weeks in, i'm quite enjoying working/volunteering at QA. all the staff is friendly and helpful (particularly the secretary, principal and the teacher i'm working with), the kids are fun, and the school is beautiful. i do, however, see an authority privilege in teachers that others, no matter what they do, cannot achieve; yesterday, i was supervising the grade 5/6 room at lunch, and kept looking outside because two grade 4 boys were playing around at the drinking fountain. they dawdled and dawdled, staring straight at me to see if i'd call them out on their behavior, which i did. afterwards, i asked one of the kids why he would look at me every time he did something, and he just said, "i don't really know." he was stunned that i noticed his attempts at provoking him or something...? quite funny.
anyways, i'm praying to see if God is paving the way for me to be employed here come fall. the principal said he'd phone the school board with a recommendation, but we'll see what happens. it would be a neat environment to teach in, seeing as i could share my faith freely.
next up - find court times and afforable rates for badminton!
