To think this class rule is stupid???

[M2R2]

Dd is in year 4. This year teacher decided that the class pet will be given out only on holidays and half term, and it will be given to the child who is traveling somewhere exciting.
Dd is now desperate to go somewhere sunny as the little bunny would like a sunny place for the summer half term .
When she first told me the rule i was a bit . But now am getting really annoyed at the idea that the teacher is even telling them thats your last chance who is going somewhere sunny to get the pet.
I feel i should talk to the teacher and let him know that i feel that is really unfair and stressful.

• you MEAN, not need

This thread is hilarious....what a daft teacher...in any case like previous posters have said...who the frig wants to the a rabbit on holiday? 😄😄

I am considering a fake holiday! To be cancelled once little bunny is home 🙈

A bloody stuffed toy? Stressful?

FFS.

Best drip feed ever...

And the teacher said exciting - not sunny.

Yeah that doesn't strike me as being particularly stressful...

It's a teddy bear

It's still a stupid fucking rule! It should be based on whoever has improved the most that term/month whatever not based on who has parents with most disposable income.

But he said exciting. That doesn't need to cost. It could be going to the woods and jumping in puddles with a picnic after

I don't think he's expecting expeditions up Everest or a week in Bali

Well then they should all get a go because I'll bet every single one of the DC will do something exciting (to them) over any given break.

Well I agree it's a bit odd it's not given out at weekends so each child can have a go. Although year 4 seems a it old - I should imagine not all the kids care

I should imagine he will give it to a child for different reasons though.

No its definitely traveling related not exciting in the back garden.
So far it went to Spain and Italy then he banned Europe breaks and said that now it need to go somewhere else i think someone took it to morocco.
Its not just about who have higher income, i will be 38w pregnant in half term. She is crying saying she misses her grand parents and would like to go and visit them even if that mean going on her own

This can't be real. The teacher has specified that the teddy must travel on school breaks and has now specified "not europe". Nope, that can't be the way this has happened. What planet is this on OP if it won't out you?

I think the rabbit should go on its holidays with you- nothing could beat a rabbit perching by your nether regions as you give birth. Unbeatable and educational!

Zilpha i am in England. I think a lot of children was going to EU on easter holiday, then he had to choose someone who is going somewhere else as bunny have been to Europe few times 🙄.
I was thinking about that bloody childbirth planet would beat everything else

The teacher has specified that the teddy must travel on school breaks and has now specified "not europe".

Maybe he got into some trouble when he was in Europe and got kicked out.

Tell them you are going to Bali, then fake Bali at home! I'd do it badly!!!

Send it to Maui.

Pretend you're going to Mexico and then take it to Chiquito's.

They still have a class toy in yr 4?I thought that was just a reception class thing.
But yeah, if they have one then it should go home with anyone who wants the bother of writing/photoing it.

Going on a steam train
Trying the zip wire
Safari
Picnic on top of a mountain (ok very high hill!)
Going on a Bear Hunt
It doesn't have to be a flight around the world. Surely the teacher is just trying to get some enthusiasm from the class.
I think I would claim to only ever be at home or the supermarket. I don't want the chuffing class pet!

Lie and say you're going to sunny Maldives 😉

Ivy am so tempted.

Tell them you are off to Iceland..Then send pic of teddy in a freezer /

I think teacher is hoping it will get left behind somewhere it will be impossible to retrieve it from...
