A long half term filled with sporting glory!
Some fantastic weekends spent travelling around Germany to compete against the other International Schhols on our circuit. A great experience for any child & myself! I really love & value these opportunities for the students social & emotional development. I believe that school trips are of huge importance for a childs development. There is so much more than passing a test...
I take it as my responsibility to ensure that the students are given as many opportunities to be exposed to these experiences.
A weekend in Munich, one in Neuss & Leipzig! Exhausting, yes! But I wouldnt have it any other way!
The students stay with ist families from the host school, while us teachers/coaches & chaperones have a lovely couple of nights in a hotel! This is where the fun begins :) Its a great way for teachers & coaches to build up a network! But not only that, we make some awesome friendships as we all share the same interests. Its a great opportunity for us to!
Its not all about the competition & winning trophies, althoguh this is still of high importance not the overall focus of such trips.
After running many events & travelling each weekend I am now ready for teh holiday! A cycling holiday in Portugal! Set off tomorrow to Lisbon to meet the team! They all share one connection.. Me! Should be quite an adventure as we have no maps & they are relying on me to lead the way! We have a 4-man teant as our home for the 10 days so we expect to get very cosy! Very excited...!
