We had a fantastic first two days at school. The children were very busy exploring the new campus and learning about the different routines and environment. We took a tour around our HUGE new campus to find out where everything was. We were pretty tired after all the walking around but the children were very positive about the new school and some even said it was "the best day and school ever!"
We spent lots of time in the classroom getting to know each other and learning everyone's names. We have two students in our class that are new to ISPP this year and already they have settled into the school and class with ease. We have a really wonderful feel to the classroom and it really feels like a little community.

The children also got to meet some of their specialist teachers while touring around the school and of course finding important places like - the nurses station, elementary school office, toilets and most importantly the swimming pool and playground :-) The school field was a hit with the children and it is such a fantastic place for the children to run around on. I'm so excited they get to enjoy such a huge open space this year.
In class the children enjoyed maths and language centres, table top activities and drawing self portraits, as well as having time to enjoy free choice sessions. It was so nice to see all the children interacting so positively with each other, and as you will see from the pictures (once my camera will let me upload them!!) we had all sorts of interesting things happen.
