Today, Johnny started Kindergarten! (If we were in the Northen Hemisphere, he'd have started in September.)

Inititally they have an adapted schedule which I am so thankful for.
Today I got to go with him to meet his new buddies and the other parents. It was SO fun and I loved watching Johnny discover all the new things and the smiling faces.
Tomorrow and Monday he goes for an hour and a half and then on Tuesday, the day David and Andrew start, he will have his normal schedule which is 2:15 pm - 5:55 pm. (David & Andrew start an hour earlier.)~
We decided to change schools for a few reasons, the main one being the fact that Haroldo Andenmatten was so so far away (30 minutes one way). Their new school is Instituto de Niños Argentinos and is about 6 blocks from our house. They'll be able to have neighborhood buddies and we will save more than 2 hours a day travelling. It just makes sense.

Johnny gets to wear the PE uniform under his pintorcito each day.
Seño Andrea, Johnny, and Seño Valeria
Seño Andrea, Johnny, and Seño ValeriaThe other boys, however, have grey slacks, collared shirts, and dress shoes.
They are excited to start the new school, but very unimpressed with uniform, especially the dress shoes. They will get to wear their PE uniform once a week with tennis shoes, but those other 4 days will be quite a bit more formal. Is it mean that I think it's funny?
I loved his classroom: the brightness, the organization, and the fun atmosphere.
I am still a little shocked, however, that my youngest is in Kindergarten.

I can't believe Johnny is starting Kindergarten. How does the time fly so fast?! I love this first picture of him. He is so confident and happy!
Party on. Looks like the barfs are gone, thankfully. Kids grow so fast- it's crazy.
I'm surprised at the school hours. 2:15-5:55? and you said the Andrew & David start an hour earlier. What do they do until then? that's really interesting.
I don't comment much but I love reading all your posts.
