An exciting day all round yesterday. Everyone was a little aprehensive as 'normal' life resumed. Alexander was back to school but now in grade one and in a shared teaching environment. This is a trial for the school and everyone is very eager to see how it works. I have never seen so many eager parents anxious to do parent help!! But bigger than that was Benji and Spencer's first day at kinder.
The first day was only an hour as way of an introduction and the parents are encouraged to stay. I got there early and got the boys used to the environment and they were surprisingly happy to be there. 
They happily walked up the path that they have walked so many times before, but this time it was all about them. Only half the class for the first week to get used to the environment and what was lovely was they already know most of the kids.

Friends checking out Splash the Turtle.It was really a lovely day for all my boys. The kinder teachers took them in and made them feel welcome and comfortable and each went off and explored their own independent interests which was just great to watch.
And for me I was happy to get back to my knitting group. It has been a long summer break and it was just lovely to catch up with everyone. Lets hope every day is as good.
