State schools are payed by the gov and that is what I teach in (aka public in Canada).<BR/>Yeah RE is new to me. I was so surprised that I was to teach that as I have had no training and don't know much about other religions myself! But that is what makes RE good: it exposes kids to many many religions from all over the world! And in these days more religious tolerance and understanding would go a long way!Peter Bondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06288204811639220214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451186.post-77270958062780563492007-02-24T18:36:00.000-08:002007-02-24T18:36:00.000-08:00Well, that's nice to hear WHAT you're doing, but a...Well, that's nice to hear WHAT you're doing, but are you enjoying it? Do you like what you're doing, happy that you're a teacher?? Hope so :) What are the kids like overall? It doesn't sound like they're too extreme one way or another.... <BR/>Okay, here we have public school and private schools, the latter of which we pay for, and also boarding schools. According to what I understand from your dad, what is "private" here is "public" there... But I'm still unsure... what exactly is what? And what is Timberly?? Just wondering cuz you said R.E., which they wouldn't have here in public schools. Anyhow, I'm taking up a lot of comment space, gotta go!<BR/>amyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
