Kindergarten Orientation

Sushan was quite excited, yet nervous (as you can tell by the look on her face) to attend the kindergarten orientation. This year there are currently 21 kids enrolled - 1 of which is her buddy Riley. They also go to the same daycare which is less than 1 block from the school. The older kids walk the younger ones to and fro. I usually drop Sushan off at daycare at 7 a.m. and pick her up at 4:30 p.m. so she's up at 6 a.m. as a general rule of thumb. It's a very long day for her as it is, never mind throwing in having to learn in a formal setting. Up til now the most children she's had to interact with all day has been 8 (including her). I know she (and I) will adapt. Kindergarten alternates 2 full days one week and 3 full days the next. In between she will be at daycare with Lilei - I work Monday to Friday so I see my kids maybe an hour in the morning, and 3 hours in the evening - thank goodness we don't have to squeeze homework in that time (do we?). I live for weekends...

I included a picture of the principal talking in the classroom just because I think he's quite a handsome man.
