What a fantastic first day!

From the moment they entered the room today, the 5R students began to bring the classroom to life. A round of Welcome Back Bingo got everyone speaking with old and new friends, then we organized ourselves with our lockers.

After recess we ventured over to the new Makerspace Art Studio for our biweekly two-hour art session, and got to meet our two visual art teachers, Mr P and Dr A. After lunch I shared a letter I’d written to the class in June, and had been unable to send, and students all had a chance to reply. Finally, Frau George came to us for a first German session, and led a class with photo interpretation and poster-making, while she worked with students to assess their German levels.

After a quick end of the day game, students received their schedules and we went to the lockers to collect our belongings and head home. A very full, and very successful first day!
