So I am on two weeks medical leave recovering from my unfortunate ectopic pregnancy and wondering what's happening in the world outside or most importantly; my school!
Just prior to my falling so suddenly so sick, I had made huge plans to celebrate the mother's day in the kindergarten in a unique way. The day Stfn had returned and I had left the school early in order to attend my appointment with my gynec, I had gone to the stationary shop and bought stickers, card construction papers, wrapping paper and several other materials for gift making. I had already obtained family pictures and mother's pictures from all the parents and had planned that children would stick their mother's picture on to a big red construction paper and make a collage design by sticking 'I Love You' cut outs from a special wrapping paper which had 'I love You' printed on it as design. This would be like a wall hanging Photo. Further more, I had planned to make a Happy Mother's Day greeting card on a special stiff glossy golden construction paper by sticking bright yellow velvet flowers, bright green velvet leaves, sticker butterflies and sticker hearts. Still further, I had planned to shoot and send videos of all the children singing a short mother's song for their mother and individually saying "I love you mama!" through the email.
All great plans to the trash bin now...!
I did hear, through Asy of course, that Stfn has has gone on leave from the kindergarten again, this time for performing some last rituals for her deceased grand mother. Asy herself has not been going to the school as she developed a painful hearing problem in her ear and also because Stf's attitude bothered her so much. She doesn't want to set foot in this kindergarten again because of Stf but probably she will come round in a day or so. I wonder who managed my class and how in the absence of all the three teachers of my group missing at the same time.
The website of the school has now only two old teachers to flaunt about: Mk and myself. Mr from Greece is on number one as she is the manager. Shockingly, there are nearly six or more new Greek teachers from Greece too. Asy had leaked this news to me that Stf has hired a Greek agency which is helping her in providing cheap teachers. At this rate however, our school would soon turn into a Greek one.
I am myself experiencing a strange detachment from this school now, something which I hadn't thought possible a few days ago. Uptill now I had been feeling guilty at being constrained to leave the school at a crucial time, but not now anymore. The day Asy told me Stf is back on her previous practice of blindly committing blunders, I lost all my sympathies with her. In about one and a half month, I shall be heading to another city with a complete set of another problems and situations to think about than a school whose owner has more interest in coveting other's boyfriends or spending long exotic romantic vacations with fresh new partners every time than thinking about the running of the school and which she accomplishes by appointing cheaply paid inefficient people and allows the school and the aspirations of the parents, teachers and the children to flow down the drains like gutter waste.
People like Stf never learn anything; they don't need to; they have enough money to just enjoy the comforts and joys a rich life has to offer much like fish enjoy being in water, without bothering about anything else on the planet. What a waste of life!
