Nu har vi en soffa
Tack för den trevliga filmvisningen (fast jag kan tycka att Liam Neeson spelar en lite väl hämndlysten fader). Jag hoppas att ni njuter av lovet medan jag och mina kollegor fortbildar oss på och utanför Berga.
Återigen tack för ert fina arbete med hemklassrummet - det blev jättesfint! Om ni läser detta inlägg före måndag vill jag passa på att berätta att jag har fixat ett möbeltillskott till 308:an - en röd soffa. De som kommer först till lektionerna får sitta där...
