What a great day thus far - loads of assemblies, couple of funeral visits, a funeral and more besides to keep me distracted.
After first assembly was talking to school administrator and attempted to access 'Vic the Vicar' to show her a graphic that I thought she'd enjoy only to find that the 'web-content filtering sofware' prohibits access to the site. Now she'll probably get an email warning her about trying to visit sites of dubious content - seems everyone's a critic these days :-)
Still, everything else has been good and didn't have a repeat of an end of term assembly at one school where I asked them what day it was going to be on the next friday. Quick as a flash one of the smaller kids put their hand up and impressed I asked them for the answer. problem was the answer wasn't what I had perhaps hoped for as I was duly informed that it would be 'bloody Friday!'
"I think you mean 'Good Friday'," I said (helpfully).
"No, it's bloody Friday," came the response, "Daddy said that we have to go and visit Nanna on bloody Friday!"
Hey ho! Never a dull moment with children and assemblies it seems :-)
And better still the administrator of the first school today will never be able to read this "Happy Easter Libby!"
:-)

That's the trouble with corporate or public service systems. They don't recognise quality when they see it.
And, for those who don't know how sharp children are and what they pick up, a salutatory lesson in minding what you say.
It might be an honor to be filtered out of the school computer. That might make your site even more attractive to the kiddos.
At least they let you out of your restricted site every now and then to make a personal appearance.
