Today was Benjamin's first day of school here in France and I have to admit I have been pretty nervous about it. Not only is he starting Kindergarden (which he shouldn't be old enough to do) but he is starting at a French school. His teacher and the director of the school speak very little english but are both very nice and helpful. We had a translator with us the day we met with the director to make sure we had everything done for him to begin school and to answer the many questions we had, this was very helpful. We also have a part-time nanny who speaks very good english who came with us today to pick him up, we wanted to make sure he had a good day and the teacher said he did well and that Ben was not shy! He met a girl in his class from the UK who also spoke english, he was very excited about that!
The top 5 reasons Ben liked school today:
1. No nap!
2. He got his own desk, pencils and markers.
3. His friend Jenna.
4. He had 3 recesses.
5. He got to eat lunch at school.
Bon Journée
