The next one

The all-staff banquet.


The theme this year was Time Travel and our Bible Study group decided to go as the Pink Ladies and our husbands as the T-Birds.  We asked one of the local seamstresses if she could whip up 5 pink shirts and 4 black shirts in 9 days and she did a great job.

It was so much fun and the committee was made up of all new teachers which was sort of funny but meant they approached it with fresh perspective and did not feel a need to do things the way they have always been done. It was the first year I remember actually having proper farewells for those staff leaving for good.


Steve got his 10 year award and I got my 5 year award.  What an honour to have served at Faith Academy for so long. As Steve was on the congratulatory line when I received my award he gave me a kiss instead of a handshake.  So when he got his award I snuck into the congratulatory line to respond in kind.  I think it may have been one of the high points of the evening!
