What a way to start a new term..... with a birthday bash! Eden College is 5years old this year so we, as a staff, decided to celebrate the event with a big birthday party. The whole school gathered on the field (in temp reaching 31 C!) and were entained by all sorts of people. Eventually my children, clutching cupcakes in their sweaty palms, headed gratefully up into the airconditioned classroom!
In grade 2, we decided to carry on with birthday theme, so each child was welcomed with a special "Grade 2" party pack. Great fun was had blowing up balloons, finding places to sit and pinning pictures of themselves on the pinboard next to their friends. Unpacking stationery was an eventful exercise but we all managed to get through the day with no tears and loads of laughter. So looking forward to getting to know these new little souls.
Some lovely pictures of your new children Gill>
