Well, I'm writing this on the very last day of term. There are a few things we need to do - some information sending over to UK online etc. but it's pretty quite. There are no learners in the building just myself, Jocelyn and Kay McDonald preparing some work for next term.
I always find the last day before the Christmas holidays quite poignant. I go around and make sure that everything is switched off. I knock the lights off on the Christmas tree for the very last time, knowing that by the time we come back, it'll be time to take it down and pack it away for another year. I also take home all the cards that I've been sent and try to tidy my desk up - OK, at least I'll make an effort.
We had notification today that we didn't succeed in our bid for £100k from UK online, which is a shame. Funding of that size and variety doesn't come around too often. However, onwards and upwards as they say.
The Centre staff are all doing different things over Christmas. I'll be going down to Bolton on Christmas Day with my family and then travelling on to Witney near Oxford for New Year. I like Christmas - probably more so than my kids - and it's nice to have time off together.
Anyhow, best wishes to all of you for 2007. Have the best Christmas you can and, hopefully, we'll catch up with you in the new year.
