Just joking, I have no reflections; I just wanted to say if feels like the end of the year even though it is March.
Hot, humid weather began this month, which meant we stopped
having our daily Maths and English desk time that we started in late April last
year. So basically we are on our long summer school holiday now.
Totally out of synch with International schools who have the
long vacation around the middle of the year, and I think locals have it around
September, we are taking ours in hot season.
We will start deskwork again after Khmer New year in mid April. Luxury
of homeschool life, you can take breaks according to your need rather a calendar.
Another reason why it feels like the end of the year is I
can’t help remember back to this month last year, with all those big changes.
Australians rushed to get back to Australia, schools and churches shut, the
tourist visas here stopped at some point and our airport closed. (I wrote about
it in May and posted it here.)
In some ways it feels like we are doing March 2020 again
this year. In terms of covid-cases things were pretty quiet until a month ago.
We are now in our worst community transmission outbreak and a few people have
died from it. So we have had to stop travelling even within the country, even
within the town. New laws have come in
including you must wear a mask in public. I wonder how long this will go on?
