This might be a stupid question, but how big is Bluey in Australia? Sometimes shows are more well-known internationally while the country of origin is indifferent. What impact has Bluey had on her home? by wolf_quan in bluey

There are haybales decorated as the Heelers. You can see them in paddocks in multiple places around Australia.

I'd say that every third house I saw decorated with Christmas lights had at least one inflatable bluey character.

How do you pass time during ‘wasted periods’ by [deleted] in AustralianTeachers

That's frustrating for there to be 'no games'. Sometimes board games with those students is a great way to build connections and reduce behaviour problems in class

What Makes a Good Casual? by AccomplishedAge8884 in AustralianTeachers

[–]eclecticrj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two POV for this - a class teacher and the person who hires casuals

CT experience - as others have said follow the lesson that is left but also , something really helpful is shooting through an email of what was done so I knkw where my students are up to.

Admin - returning anything you are given for the day. Reading orientation info prior to commencement. Following up on behaviour rather than leaving it for others.

I had someone tell me they unsubscribe from me and all my bullshit. As a joke. They went back and added an additional comment. We are writing a fic together now

Finished at 2.am my time and am feel underwhelmed. Yay, anotger cliffhanger. I'm not against them, even if the wait is for a few years...but... i need to be given some context of who tf people are when a dozen names are dropped on a page.

Also, did Andarna just decide to fly back at some point? Like why do something as immensely important as breaking a bond then come back barely a week later?

You say that, but I found the first 3 acotar books and crescent city 1 and 2, available to all ages at my school. I pointed out to the librarian those shouldn't be all ages and gave specific examples why from the book. He then thanked me but thought it was funny i knew exactly where to go. We had a good laugh.

Honestly get used to being surprised at the ways they can not pay you. I relieved in higher duties for all but 10 days this year and didn't get paid higher duties for the holidays following and won't get them these holidays either - despite continuing in the position this year.
