Dear colleagues,
as we gird up our loins for the start of the school year,
I read this out at our first staff meeting, and it went over quite well. It was
suggested that other teachers may also enjoy it.
(To be read out loud with all possible dramatic effect.)
On The Occasion Of The Beginning Of The School Year.
by Ben
Sommer
And so, we meet again,
We select band,
We noble few,
To go forth and do
What we must do.
We?ve had our rest,
Those empty days
With naught to do
But rest and laze.
No student smiles,
No sweet, bright eyes,
No little tricks,
No screams, no cries.
But fret no more,
Their time is near
And that is why
We?re gathered here.
How good to see you
Here once more,
A noble goal
We?re fighting for.
We work together,
Give support
At those moments
When distraught.
The helpful smile,
Sympathetic ear,
They are all
O, well found here ?
The tender heart,
The gentle tear?
Our task?s not easy,
The conditions fraught,
Oft we feel crabbed,
Confined and caught.
Yet there is strength
To help each other
And thus we be
True sister and brother.
Well met! Well met!
The future?s bright.
Let us go forth
To our good fight!
