After a long, hot summer the school corridors are once again full of life and energy as the students – all 475 of them – returned to school.
This is the one day of the year when most parents come to help their sons and daughters find the right room and meet their teacher for the year. It was nice to see the parents getting their children settled. Then it was time for the learning to begin, followed by delicious lunch in the cafeteria and of course play time.
