Yet Another Student Blog

I'm becoming known as the Blog Queen. I should get commission from blogger.
I started working here at the school I blogged about before - the one with the smartboards in every classroom. I've nearly finished my second week, which was going to be my last week, as I've decided I really have to get to Montreal before it snows, but I've just been talked into a 3rd week by the DoS. It's not his fault - management fired someone last week without really consulting anyone, and another teacher just stopped showing up yesterday, so this week is not a good time to leave on short notice.
However. In the last session each day, students get to choose an elective, such as pronunciation, grammar, etc. And I've just started a new elective - A Student Social Club. The aim is to develop this blog that keeps the other students informed of what is happening in Vancouver, as well as being a resource on things like the good restaurants, clubs, shops etc to go to. It can also be used for organising student events, like dinners and nights out. We started it on Tuesday, today is Thursday and there are only 4 students in the class, but we already have a heap of stuff there. I love the concept - I just hope they manage to keep it up after I leave!
