Day Twenty Seven at Mountain Creek State High School

Today Melissa and I had off!! There were no classes at all at the school due to parent conferences being held. The conferences started at 1pm and lasted until 7pm. The reason Melissa and I had off was because there was the ‘Thank you’ cocktail party held each term at the Sunshine Coast University. This is where all the host teachers, principals, and student teachers come to share a few drinks and nibbles. Basically all the very important people involved in this program say a few words, us students say a few words, and we all get a chance to mingle. The party started at 4, so it would have been pointless to come to the conferences just for an hour only just to leave. The best part about this was a relaxing beautiful day at the beach. However the worst part about this was the fact that our teachers and principal could not come share this experience with us. I would have loved for them to meet the rest of the students and chat among everyone. In the end it was a great day full of lots of sun and fun.
