The Birth of the Academy.

I saw the 4 new signs, designed to look a little like flags, along the front first, then (as I drove down the drive) I followed some very posh looking signs down a newly tarmaced drive and parked the car. New signs; every building labelled to within an inch of it's life and a really cute sign post directing you to the purpose of the building 4 meters away.

Brand new red leather sofas in reception and LCD TVs showing the days events like a professional CPD center I once knew well in Hindmarsh. It's all looking very professional, modern and new.

Of course, we're still in the same buildings and the classrooms are no different than they were back when we were just a 'school' but there is a changed mood. Even though, fundamentaly we've got a new logo and signs everything does feel exciting and new.

Change is good. :)
