Tea Time

Here is a picture of ‘tea time’ at school. We have it every day for 30 minutes. There are 4 different pots all covered with nicely crocheted covers. The tea pots are super hot so you need the covers to be able to pour. There are two pots with tea, one with hot water for instant coffee (no coffee pots here) and one with Rooibos tea. Rooibos has no caffeine and has lots of antioxidants (supposedly much better for you than regular tea.) There is also full cream milk and low fat milk and sugar all available to put into your coffee or tea. No one here drinks tea or coffee without milk and sugar!

Here are some of the teachers sitting at tea break. Each teacher has their own chair, and you are looked at funny if you sit in the wrong chair. People say they don't really care, but secretly they do. We are all creatures of habit and don't like change...we like our own chairs. They had to find a chair for me when I came since I was new and I didn't sit where Glenda usually sat.
