Where has the last 5 years gone. In the middle of August the new school year started and this time it was different for Nathanael as he entered into full time school starting in the Kindergarten class. Before August we were expecting his class to consist of just 2 with his remaining pre-school buddy, Renier, joining him.
On our return we were surprised to hear that another family was joining the ship and so now there are 3 with Caleb joining them. The night before school started they opened up the classroom so we can all visit and meet the teachers. Nathanael is in a bigger room which has been divided into 2 to accommodate grade 2's classroom aswell.
Nathanael's african pencil case and we love the inventive way of little bags that hang over their chairs to hold their books. We have some amazing creative people on this ship.
This is Miss Leah, Nathanael's Kindergarten teacher. Last year she only had one student in her class so her class size has "tripled". She comes from Australia and she has recently got engaged - so congratulations!!
Such a small boy for such a big bag! Going full time also meant he needed a bigger bag for his papers
The first day started off with us all meeting in the International lounge where they were called out by class and taken off to their classroom. Here is Nathanael with the Kindergarten class.
He's also having to get into the routine of homework each day.
Meanwhile he is loving school and is even getting to learn French, Computers and Science, he has quite full schedule which keeps him very busy.
