Yesterday was the first day back for Little S who starts the Grande Section of his Maternelle class. He was exhausted and had a really hard time getting up! His teacher even noticed and said "someone went to bed late." He looks a little disheveled, but then again my kids always look like this.
He's really proud to be the big boy on campus and he kept going on and on about it over our vacation saying "I'm in Grande Section now so I get extra desserts" and "now that I'm in Grande Section I can stay up later!"
His class is huge with over fifty kids so they've still got it divided it in two classes. He's with most of the same kids he was with last year but they have moved some kids which mixes it up a bit. I think Little S is in the good class though because they get to go on a field trip in February and they'll be gone four days! EEeeek. I'm already stressing about it but I think it's going to be lots of fun for him and it's probably a good reflection of his teacher for wanting to plan such a thing with a bunch of five and six year olds. She must love kids.

He looks adorable! And very happy.
That's so great that his teacher plans trips like that! They could never do that in Italy. I know tons of Itslian moms who won't let their adolescents stay away from home that long because what if something happened? Or if they got sick?
Best wishes for an exciting new school year. I admire your teacher - all those kids for four days - oh my!
Four days! Wow. I don't think I've ever heard of them doing that down in our neck of the woods.
Sophia is in the Moyenne section this year and I feel like I've missed something. We don't even have a list of supplies yet, but we have gotten the flyer about the school closures for the flu and I've already heard talk of a strike for next week.
Jen - It's pretty rare here too but they don't go far. We were asked beforehand if we'd be up for it and it seems they chose open minded parents and kids. Of course we can still say no and not let them go if we want.
hexe - thanks :) she seems like a really special teacher.
Erica - no lists yet! You won't get those until CP :) (unless they're in private school) We just have to buy plastic goblets and kleenex packs, which I think is universal. We got the flyer too which was just a bunch a blah blah blah. (Jen if you read this did they do this in Italy? Did the govt. send out a health flyer about the grippe? )
