Tuesday morning was awesome. This may or may not be
related to the fact that I spent all but an hour of it asleep. At 11.30, I went
to the lycée as my prof had arranged for me to have lunch with some students.
It was nice to talk to some people around my age and the lunch was pretty nice
too – bonus!
After lunch, I took the two buses to my other lycée. One
of the lucky things about the first lycée is that they didn’t haven’t had an
assistant before which takes the pressure off a bit. The second one, on the
other hand, had an assistant who seems to have set quite the precedent to
follow. Hopefully they’ll like what I do just as much.
I met the headteacher of the school who has only been in
place a few weeks herself. In France, the longest that a head can stay at a
school is 5 years so they change quite often. Although the head was the person
I spoke to for the longest, it was another case of meeting a heck of a lot of
people in a short time – hopefully I’ll remember at least some of their names!
The teacher overseeing my timetable and my work at this school is also very
nice. He’s incredibly enthusiastic and has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the
history of Le Havre, Normandy and seemingly France in general, something proved
by an incredibly detailed car tour of Le Havre and the surrounding area. He
also has a set of autographed Amélie Nothomb books which I’m sure some of my
lecturers would love to get their hands on.
All in all, another good day.
