Australia's Science Forum

I am really lucky in that any stationary supplies for the department are purchased for the entire school by the receptionist.
This is getting away from the original question I wanted to know if you expect the teachers to organise there own pracs that only use stationary. But I guess that has been answered.

Sometimes I hope that when the teacher's plan their lesson in advance, they would remind their students to bring in the necessary stationery equipment like coloured pencils, rulers etc... instead my nice stash of textas and pencils get returned with lids missing and not sharp!

Whilst I am quite happy to supply orders that include stationary this mornings order made me see red
It is the second time he has ordered this.
15 strips of paper 30cm long and 1cm wide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't his mother ever teach him how to use scissors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got 2 sheets of A4 paper and cut them into strips over the top of him and his desk.
I can be a bitch at times.
Yesterday it was changing an order for period 4 at recess.
Then at lunch asking for something for last period just as the bell rang and heading off to his classroom in a different block up 2 flights of stairs rather then following me to the prep room and taking it himself!
