As the cold winter days set in and we start to get pelted with the white stuff, now is the perfect time to stock up on some entertaining movies to keep the kiddos content on that inevitable snow day (or two) we are bound to get. Crafts are great and I can even suggest some, but what is better than hot chocolate, popcorn and a funny flick you can all enjoy together? I have the perfect film to pick up on DVD or Blu-ray or grab on digital download: Middle School – The Worst Years of My Life.
“MIDDLE SCHOOL: The Worst Years of My Life chronicles the trials and triumphs of Rafe Khatchadorian, as he uses his wits to battle bullies, hormones and the tyrannical, test-obsessed Principal Dwight. Rafe has an epic imagination…and a slight problem with authority. Both collide when he transfers to an oppressive, rule-crazy middle school. Drowning in do’s and don’ts, Rafe and his scheming best friend Leo hatch a plan to break every rule in the school’s Code of Conduct. It’s Ferris Bueller meets Home Alone as their battle with Principal Dwight explodes into chaos both real and imagined. But Dwight displays his own fiendish creativity, striking back at the rulebreakers. Meanwhile, Rafe struggles to hide his misbehavior from Jeanne, the straight-A, overachieving girl of his dreams, and at home, his mother’s boyfriend — a moochy, jack-of-no-trades named Bear — threatens to become his stepfather. Rafe’s revolution leaps from the page to the screen in this ambitious live-action/animated comedy based on the New York Times bestseller “Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life” by legendary novelist James Patterson.”

I love school and enjoyed every minute, well nearly. I never liked having to stand on the podium and read at assembly, in fact I hated that. I like a lot of my teachers but some made me angry. My German teacher at grammar school was one of those, I loved it when I got my exam papers back & had failed. Undaunted I checked it through and discovered his maths was dreadful, I loved going up to him and telling him I’d passed 🙂 He was the sort who threw the wooden board duster at you if you didn’t have the right answer quickly enough!
I thoroughly enjoyed school, especially high school. We had our own cottages for the sixth Formers where we could make a cup of coffee or tea, study, hold a discussion, do homework etc, marvellous. One cottage for the Lower sixth (16 to 17yrs) and one for the Upper Sixth (17 to 18yrs)
