School starts on Monday!! WOW! They had a back to school bash tonight. Not fun with 3 kids in tow in a building we've never been in before! Boys were scared at first, but they relzed after awhile, especially when they realized they'd be in their own room, with their own
We found out the twins are indeed in the same class and have the teacher we were hoping they'd get.
The school made a big deal about having backpacks that fit into their "lockers". However, we found out tonight, kindergarteners don't HAVE lockers! AARRGGHH! But, we did find matching Spiderman backbacks (or pack backs as the boys call them) with lunchboxes and thermoses that the boys LOVE (thankfully, since all Transformers were SOLD OUT!)
Tom is excited they get an ART class every week; Travis is excited for MUSIC class each week. Both are looking forward to both computer classes and weekly library trips. We met all the teachers for each of those areas and the boys were so funny - shy until they found out the subject they taught. When we met the art teacher, Travis said "THOMAS! You get to color and draw and paint and all the crazy stuff you like!" Tom just rolled his eyes, shook the teacher's hand and then ran over to check out all the supplies. Too funny!
We have another meeting tomorrow night - about the after school program and "kindergarten enrichment" program. KE basically fills up the rest of hte day for a half-day kindergarten. Who ever thought up half day kindergarten should be flogged! (that's for a different post though - too tired to rant!). Friday is their open house where they get to meet other kids in their class and then Monday it all starts new. Whoo hoo!!
