Ten more school days Smile this is the longest half term of the school year for us at 6w3d so it can't come quick enough!

Meeee! I'm off to Barbados 🇧🇧

Me. I will have three days to myself while my children are in nursery. My first days to myself since my birthday in November. I love them to pieces (obviously) but I'm really drained from being back in work and I can't wait!

I'd be looking forward to it more if we didn't have to write mid-term reports. 😣

It’s the shortest for us at 6 weeks so feels amazing that after 4 weeks there’s only 2 left, unlike in Autumn when there were 4 or 5!

BigcatLittlecat · 03/02/2019 20:35

We still have 3 weeks!! I'm not sure I can do it!

Cleebope2 · 03/02/2019 21:09

When is mid term this year in most schools in England, Scotland and Wales and Ireland too? I need NI it’s 18-22 February. I’m asking cos we want to investigate when the cheaper ski deals will be and when will be less busy.

3 weeks for us!

MaisyPops · 03/02/2019 21:11

I can't wait for it. For such a short half term, I feel piled up with marking and don't know how/why this has happened when I'm normally quite organised.
The holiday can't come soon enough.

Me! I've a chest infection, travelling husband and am hanging on by a thread.

PumpkinPie2016 · 05/02/2019 19:29

Me! We are going away so it will be a proper break and my God I need it!

Half of my Y11 class are working hard and half just can't be arsed and want to blame anyone but themselves! Fed up today!

student26 · 05/02/2019 19:33

Not me! My contract ends then :( back to job hunting.

cantagree · 05/02/2019 20:12

Ours is wb 18th Feb, SE England

Greenandcabbagelooking · 05/02/2019 20:21

Eight days to go here. It can't come soon enough.

I broke my wrist on Friday. It's surprisingly frustrating. Today's low points include being unable to take lids of board pens, kids having to sign their own behaviour report cards, and someone having to write my name in a leaving card. I can't even open my water bottle.

Practicals will be interesting!

Youmadorwhat · 05/02/2019 22:20

Me!...kinda,but then again in Ireland we only have 21st and 22nd off 😩

Holidayshopping · 09/02/2019 10:43

How is it that a 6week 3 day half term is the longest one you have?! Some of ours are 8!

cantagree · 09/02/2019 15:04

@Holidayshopping private school Smile

PumpkinPie2016 · 16/02/2019 08:16

Well, I finished yesterday!! Now sat in the lake district for the week Smile

Hope everyone enjoys the break!

Procrastination4 · 16/02/2019 09:08

In Ireland too, but we have the week!

shishnfips · 16/02/2019 10:53

Finished yesterday too! I'm going to work two days at home but the rest I'm switching off!!!
