School!

So Maya and Sage go to school now! After three years of homeschooling the transition has been fairly painless as this is only a school of 5 (7 now that they have joined the ranks)! They will only be here until Xmas though......they are particularly excited that they will get to be in the school play which they put on every year despite low numbers of cast members!
Beth and Sorley (my siblings) went to this school about 30 years ago.....it's still the same dinner lady serving the lunches (she brings them over from a bigger school about15 mins away)!
The facililtes are incredible with all the kids having their own laptop....there is a separate knitting teacher, french teacher, P.E. teacher and music teacher!
We often see this pair of swans in the Bottoms Up position on the drive to school!
