Chapter Twenty-Seven

Helen watched as Sharni expertly guided the children into perfect poses for their photograph. It had been Sharni’s idea to create a Christmas backdrop. Helen was impressed with her patience. She made the children feel at ease and managed to get a smile from each child as she clicked the shutter. It was quite true, Helen thought, you should never judge a book by its cover. Maybe Clare had it all wrong about Sharni.

‘A great find,’ Geoff smiled.

‘We should hire her,’ said Helen. ‘She’s got the patience of a saint.’

‘All credit to you for finding her.’

‘Oh, I didn’t find her as such. She lives right next door to Clare.’

‘How about a group teacher photo,’ Sharni called.

‘Ooh, one of us. That makes a change,’ laughed Helen.

‘It’s not normally what we do,’ said Geoff uncertainly. ‘But I agree it’s a good idea. We don’t have all the staff in today though.’

‘We could phone around,’ said Helen. ‘We’re only three down. Do you want to call Clare?’ Helen asked Sharni.

Sharni’s face clouded over. ‘I’ll leave that to you,’ she smiled but Helen sensed her discomfort.

The other teachers laughed amongst themselves.

‘Are you sure you don’t mind?’ asked Geoff. ‘I don’t imagine we’ll be able to do it until after the kids finish at three.’

‘That’s fine,’ smiled Sharni. ‘I’m enjoying it.’

‘I’ll take Sharni for lunch shall I?’ Helen said hopefully. It would make a change for her to take someone to lunch on school expenses. Geoff got to do it all the time so he couldn’t very well say no.

‘Of course, just put it on expenses. We’ll see you after lunch to do year three.’

‘Great, let’s go to the little place around the corner,’ said Helen, helping Sharni to pack up her equipment. ‘Best put all this in the head’s office.’
