This book is a collection of short stories that follow the author’s school life as a primary and junior secondary school educator. There are tales about children. There are stories about parents and others who engage with schools. The recounts personalise the diverse role of a school-based educator. While some of the events took place in earlier and different times, some of the scenarios remain current today. The anecdotes presented in the book happened in urban and regional schools in Queensland, a junior school in England, and in an international school in Papua New Guinea. Each story portrays the human side of school life. The people in schools are the fabric of a school-based educator’s job. Stories About My School Life demonstrates there can be a lighter side to schools, and the roles of their teachers and principals.
