Funny, poignant, charming and deeply sad at times, this is a fascinating insight into a teaching life.
With his sharp wit and poet's eye, Tim Heath writes of a forty-year career, mostly in New Zealand but also in Samoa. He's worked in small country schools, in big city schools, at the Correspondence School, in primary schools and in secondary schools. He's been a principal and a deputy principal.
Teaching wasn't his first choice, but once in the classroom he found his calling.
Tim is a passionate advocate for children and their learning, and his educational philosophy is illustrated through touching anecdotes of children and their struggles and successes.
Written against the backdrop of changing times in New Zealand, this memoir is a deep dive into education and its place in our world.

If you grow your own garden herbs, at some point the plant will bolt and go to seed / flower. You may have picked them fresh and on demand up to that point, but once they bolt you are going to want to harvest them and keep the leaves. This grinder works really well in grinding te dried leaves down for storage and later use. Tested and worked well with coriander, basil, oregano and thyme so far (too coarse for rosemary.).
Top immaculate, as described, at a phenomenal price. Very professional service.
Excellent top, gorgeous colours, a great buy
