Mommy and Daddy took Joseph to Pattimura Elementary School today. Joseph had another 1st day of Kindergarten. Mommy almost cried. Joseph was very upset this morning and did not want to go to school. His teacher is Mrs. Gamage and she seems so super duper nice! The kids in his class are a mixture of ethnicities. Mommy hopes that Joseph will learn to love his new school.
This week was Indonesian week at the school so there were activities all week related to Indonesia. This morning there was a concert at the school with a local band. The kids seemed to enjoy that. Mommy is glad that Joseph is going to a smaller campus. The school is only for K-5th or 6th grade. The entire school was at the concert and it really wasn't that large of a gathering.
Lunch is 25,000 rupiah or the equivalent of $2.50. It's actually more than he was paying for lunch at public school in Texas. Joseph gets his choice of Asian or Western food so Mommy thinks that he will find something he likes. If not, Daddy bought Joseph a new lunch box so that he can bring his lunch if he would rather.
Mrs. Gamage sent Mommy a picture of Joseph in P.E. He still seems a little anxious, but definitely much happier than he was this morning. Mommy is about to go and pick Joseph up from school.
