Last Sunday we returned to Mussoorie after taking the overnight train with a whopping ten minutes to spare before the first staff meeting. BAM from hot, relaxing days on the beach to sitting in the ridiculously cold Parker Hall and getting down to business.
The week was filled with professional development, retreats, prepping and staff meetings. This past weekend I was on coming up duty which means picking students up from the airport with all their luggage (half of which is tuck- meaning things they 'tuck' away from their dorm parents...as in junkfood. I'm not kidding, most kids had about 10 kgs of tuck per person..AT LEAST), bringing them to the hotel and accompanying them on the train and buses up to Mussoorie. It was quite the experience; I couldnt help but feel a bit like Hagrid taking the Hogwarts Express back up to school.
