The Ticklers in secondary school

Time flies: today was the first day of the Ticklers at the secondary school. It was the school where I used to work seven years ago. A bit more now come to think of it, I worked there from late 2009 until May 2010. I don't regret my time there, but I am glad I don't work there anymore, having left an education career somewhat bitter (see this post for what I feel about school here). It would have been strange to teach them, probably not easy, as they are too familiar with me. Still, I sometimes wonder about it. Anyway, I saw a picture of Blonde Tickler on Facebook in her new school uniform and I felt a bit sad. I hope they don't grow up too fast.
