1 The young person who was the senior server in the chapel, stored his marijuana in the tabernacle behind the altar .He reasoned that nobody ever looked in there and he had a key.
2.They broke into the dininghall one night and silently removed all the furniture. They set it all up outside on the "parade ground" (atrium) in exactly the same way as it was in the diningroom. Next morning early, a round of telephone calls among the staff and we colluded to pretend that it was not a surprise and to carry on asif nothing had happened. Absolutely without comment breakfast was served.
In the afternoon after school we all laughed about it.
3 Asked a resident child care worker to look after his pot-plant during the holidays. The child care dutifully watered and cared for it for the duration of the holiday and handed it back. .... He didn't know it was a potted marijuana plant.
4. There was full fire-drill one night with alarms, fire-tenders and hosepipes arriving . There had to be a full evacuation of the houses and a roll-call. The firemen checked each house for any stragglers. A boy was stopped re-entering a house. When the fireman asked what he was doing , the boy said " I left my skateboard in there !"
5 A real fire this time !! The drill in this group home was that a rope with knots and ribbons was used to mark a place for each child. The child care worker could easily check that there was a child at each marker to lead the young people to the assembly point outside. As she did so, a half sleep adolescent broke away, went back into the house went to the toilet and had a very long pee.
