I hope Spiderboy had a wonderful first day, and your daughter settled into her new school well too.

Well that's different. There are not many combined grades anymore in the states. Sometimes they do combine two grades when there's not funds/students for two full-time teachers.

hello daddy – sorry to have missed so much of your life in recent times … too shagged with the move, new job, new town, new house and whatever to be around much.

My wee lads are settling into a new school too – Darling Boy into a kindy with seven kids – all indigenous and First born into a school of 40 somedays and 20 other days – around four non indigenous kids. He is having problems with the dialec and some culutal differences … but all in all ok – he is in a composite class of 5yr – 8yr old kids.

I think that it is a bummer when a burecrate tells you new boundaries means you have to move …. good luck with it all dear ones ! my best le

Only half of our kids are in school so it's rarely quiet around here. You're lucky!

That's nice! Love those cards. Owen started day care (3 mornings a week) on 31st Aug. The whole place seems so quiet from 8:45am till 11:15am that its kinda scary! But then I could get to use to the peace & quiet! .-= Shanny´s last blog ..Rude people =-.

Good idea. If you can't join them, then beat them up instead.

I hope they will be well liked. They are such sweet kids but we know that it doesn't always guarantee things. I'm sure you can teach them some cool karate moves so they can defend themselves. Hehe .-= Kay´s last blog ..K's field trip =-.

That is weird, but I'm glad we don't start school until September. July and August are the only two dry months in the Portland area.

I hope they enjoyed their first day. It's hard starting at a new school, but it can be good to meet new friends. .-= Suzanne´s last blog ..Coyolxauqui at the Templo Mayor =-.

Well, at least around here there are no lockers in middle schools or high schools. They "pose a safety and security risk." Yeah. Uh-huh. Whatever. So the kids either have to break their backs carrying an overloaded backpack or use the rolling backpacks. My kids opt for the latter; they don't care if they look like geeks. *grin*

What great pictures! I'm sure the kids will fit in. Good luck to them. These pics brought back lots of memories of many a first day of school. Thanks! .-= Newlyweds Guide Francesca´s last blog ..When Is Your Anniversary? =-.

Love your little one with her tongue sticking out, probably because she has to stay at home while big sis and brother get to go to school.

Luckily, school ends before the kids birthdays. Otherwise, there would be too many kids.

Kids adapt well. The birthday party guest list will grow longer this year as they'll invite friends from the old and new school! More presents :-D .-= yuinting chin´s last blog ..Piano Duet For Dad =-.

I didn't know that. I know the middle school the kids were eventually suppose to go to had lockers. Thank goodness for my son. He's kinda small and would fit in a locker.

Silly rabbit, don't you know there are no lockers on campus anymore? .-= Desert Songbird´s last blog ..Sticking My Head up To Offer Apologies =-.
