Mass hysteria
Dec. 12th, 2007 08:11 pmSorry for being invisible on lj but I've been a bit preoccupied with other stuff. There is marking hell, too, and I've still got loads left to do.
There was some mass hysteria at school today.
More regular service to resume.

Date: 2007-12-13 06:43 pm (UTC)Yep, it was fun! There was an irresponsible newspaper article and general rumour-mongering about threats to several schools - but not ours - but these were all pranks anyway and except for one case the pranksters had already been found out.
Then yesterday threatening graffiti turned up in the boys' loo and on a blackboard in our year. The blackboard graffiti artist has been identified. The toilet cubicle case is a harder nut to crack. Some of my pupils are under investigation....

They don't get that it's in itself quite suspicious if a bunch of 16-year-old boys nearly always goes to the toilet as a group and then even shares a cubicle..... There is definitely something going on!
