Today was the first day of school for the new term, and the day seems to have gone well. Eli had some tears this morning, but that settled quickly and he got on with things. Eli is now in a bridging class, which is all the children who would have moved up to the preschool except that there is just no space left in the other two classes. It is set up as a preschool class, so the equipment is different to the toddler class. The new class also means that Eli gets to have break at the same time as Grace, so they spent time playing together today.

We were asking Eli about his day, “What did you do in class today?” He says (while lying on the floor), “Boring things,” so I guess that tells us something about what he currently thinks of the new class…
