@knoxacademyHT @knoxacademy Wow 🤩

What amazing talent in our S3 pupils @knoxacademy who made & designed these Christmas cakes. I would be happy to have any one of these adorning my table on Christmas Day. The skill level was immense, as was the attention to detail. Winners announced soon! #talent #ARC

Brining a wee bit of Scottish Poetry to my Festive Door 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇻🇳🎄

Definitely one of the more unusual things I have had to do at work……dress as a Reindeer for the Christmas Fair!

@MissJackHistory @dgs_sport Oh how I have missed this!

Heel toe in we go!! 🎶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🕺 @dgs_sport and S5/6 - bravo!! 👏

Wow 🤩 Vietnamese Teacher’s Day is an incredible event. Beautiful flowers and delicious treats but the most significant aspect of today has been the kindness of students and families and their deep appreciation of teachers and education. Feeling totally humbled 🥰

@dgs_biology @dunbar_grammar Brilliant 🤩

Really do love @dunbar_grammar children in need day. S6 always impress with incredible costumes, this year they had us seeing double! #RISE

I had a fantastic weekend at the FOBISIA conference in Bangkok. A great opportunity to connect with colleagues and hear from really inspiring and thought provoking speakers and workshop leaders. Heading into work today feeling a little tired but incredibly lucky 🍀

Vacancies at my school! If anyone is interested, please get in touch. With international jobs, we interview before the closing date so early application is recommended. Also, all teaching posts have the possibility of a Head of Year (pastoral) promotion. tes.com/jobs/employer/…

A really great thing about living in Vietnam is the amazing array of iced coffees…..peanut butter, coconut, salt and yogurt coffee, just to name a few!

Autumn in Hanoi! ☀️ 🍂🇻🇳

A visit to the famous train street 🚂

@GGillHHam1 Yes, I moved here a few weeks ago. Absolutely loving it!

@CSlowther I’ve missed this Clare! Are you working in Hanoi now?

A wee insight into life outside work in Hanoi 🇻🇳🥰

@MissHunterMods They are so lucky to have you back!

And that completes the end of my first week back at DGS. It’s been so lovely catching up with students and colleagues and I am very lucky to have some fabby classes on my timetable. Feels like I’ve never been away! ❤️👩‍🏫

@MsPrestonHT @RosehillHS Hope you ladies had a great start to term 🥰

Week 1 @RosehillHS smashed by pupils and staff alike! I am so lucky to spend each day with this team of amazing women. I wish it wasn’t notable, but we’ve been wondering how many other Scottish secondary schools have an all female SLT? And now for a family weekend 🙌

@MissJackHistory Happy birthday 🎂

Tell you what, working on your birthday is a pleasure when it’s spent with this lot! Feeling very lucky today. Some special visitors popped in too!! 🎈💐

@mcintosh_pam @dunbar_grammar Love it! 🥰

@CSlowther @dunbar_grammar I did say I would nab it!!! Hope you are all good!!

Settling into my new office and adding some @dunbar_grammar touches 🥰

Settling into life in Hanoi
