I will using next year to complete my Masters in Educational Leadership. I have had a wonderful time in Oman and at ABIS and it is very sad to leave. The students in our school really are a special bunch and the school has undergone such a transformation since my arrival in 2014. I have managed to dig out some old photos from around that time including a picture of Kameron and Tay&#8217;a not long after our arrival. The students I first taught would now be in grade 10 but I am the only one left from my original class. The next years class are now in grade 9 and I did manage to find some old photos!<\/p>\r\n<p>I had a lovely farewell from the staff and from grade 3S yesterday which brought tears to my eyes on more than one occasion. I feel very blessed and special having been part of the ABIS family for so long.<\/p>\r\n<p>To all of you I wish you all the very best wherever life\u2019s journey takes you next. Thank you all for your support over the last seven years and take care.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\r\n<ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\">\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"478\" class=\"wp-image-194251 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/img_0940.jpg\" data-id=\"194251\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/img_0940.jpg 640w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/img_0940-480x359.jpg 480w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 640px, 100vw\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/478;\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"478\" class=\"wp-image-194250 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/img_0273.jpg\" data-id=\"194250\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/img_0273.jpg 640w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/img_0273-480x359.jpg 480w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 640px, 100vw\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/478;\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\r\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"180\" height=\"320\" class=\"wp-image-194252 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/dsc_0173.jpg\" data-id=\"194252\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/dsc_0173.jpg 180w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/dsc_0173-169x300.jpg 169w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 180px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 180\/320;\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/Screenshot_20201203-153757_Gallery-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-194535 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2020\/12\/Screenshot_20201203-153757_Gallery-146x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"146\" height=\"300\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 146px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 146\/300;\" \/><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well the day has finally arrived and by the time you read this post I will be in Muscat waiting for my flight to New Zealand.
