1700 humans on a Sunday

| Wow! That is good for a Sunday. Since this site's been up since Easter, won't it be even better this time next year! If they could keep this up for the whole year: 1,693 x 365 = 617,945 That's a huge amount of traffic for a primary school! And why is it possible? Because they update frequently and there's lots of pictures... It's just so interesting for parents and kids and, well anybody who likes to find out what's happening at the school. |
I'm nervous

A nervous presenter, that is. I've just done a presentation in front of about 20 teachers. It was their staff day, and I was to show and demo their new school blog. Something that I've done several times before, and quite well too.
This time, however, the presentation gods were against me. Their Internet connection was down. And I'd lost my prop!
There I stood, in front of those eyes, bearing down on me, watching me: shake, mumble, go around in circles. They cut into my soul, as I, out of body, joined them tutting and rolling my eyes at my real self.
At the end, backs were turned toward me, nobody wanted to catch my eye, nor be caught talking to me, lest they too were tarred with my anti-charisma. I wanted the world to swallow me whole, and perhaps everybody in the room wouldn't have noticed if it did.
Sure, I'm being too hard in myself, it wasn't so bad, there was some debate, some engagement. I'm due back at the end of the month, when I'll be better prepared for a catastrophe. I shall redeem myself, my self respect, my product.

I'm back

I'm back from my half term hols down in South Wales. My mum and dad and sister and two nieces still live in my home town of Aberdare in the Queen of the South Wales Valleys. No Internet connection there is, at first, missed then forgotten about :-)
Much to do and catch up on this week. Beginning with the bloggings I missed during the week...
Some neat-o stuff from Bodnant's nursery nurse, who bulk emails in numerous pictures, and some comments from Craig y Don's local beat bobby about Halloween and the Head's hopeful bald head, as well as a fashion show.
Great to see the local beat bobby realising the school's site's potential to reach the pupils. Excellent engagement. It'll only get better.
