Getting hired
Posted in Teaching,work by steve on the January 28th, 2010It’s been a long time coming, but I’ve finally lined up a new job — I’ve been hired to teach physics at Papakura High School, down in the southern reaches of Auckland. Start-of-year meetings kicked off this morning; we have the long weekend coming up, then the students show up on Tuesday, and classes begin in earnest on Thursday. I’m glad I got a decent amount of progress made on this site before term started, of course, but getting myself prepared will now be the priority, and so I’ll keep the site ticking over, but won’t be adding an awful lot for a week or so while I focus on my new job.
