Instead of using a whistle to signify the end of breaks, staff at St Monica's Catholic Primary School must instead raise a hand in the air to get the attention of pupils.
Depends what's in the hand being raised.
Considering most children have cell phones surgically attached to their hands why not send a text instead or post it on facebook or twitter or chipper or whatever.
Even better: With all this ongoing bullshit about banning this and that from schools and school playgrounds, fields, yada yada yada maybe it would just be easier to ban schools.
Oh neat, if my little sisters' school could do this, instead of making sure the house is regularly stocked with many irritating little screechy pieces of plastic, I'd be ecstatic. Why the fuck are you sending kids home with those things? You want to hear that shit all day?
As an aside, yeah, banning whistles is pretty stupid.
But I'd take that over ever actually giving a whistle to a child.
What goddam school blows whistles when recess is over? They going out of their way to be obnoxious? Can't afford a bell like every other school in the world? Sister Soandso still whacking knuckles with the ruler too?
jesus chris,enough is enough.
That was my first thought also, this is going way too much over the line!!

Come on 2Cdo, your ideas aren't that bad.
I was thinking more the perpetually offended, limp wristed, political left wing types that put forward such fucking drivel.
