| Dagan in his school uniform |
Dagan was finally able to start school today. He is going to Wollongong Public School. His uniform is much better than Sydney's. He gets to wear his white school polo and navy track pants or shorts. He also has a school jacket and a hat. When we went to sign him up, the office had forgotten to give me a form that needed to be completed for the state. After sending it in, we have a few more complications which meant Dagan stayed home with me for an extra week instead of starting close to when Sydney did. It was a bummer, but there wasn't anything we could do about it.
Dagan was nervous about the first day. We walked Sydney to school and then headed to his school. We went to the office and met with the assistant principle. He showed us where to go in the morning and introduced us to Dagan's teacher, Mr. Campbell. He is in a 4/5 class. Every morning the kids line up outside for the morning assembly. Then the teacher collects them to head to the classroom. His class is on the third floor, so he will be getting lots of exercise.
When he came out of school the first day, he rated his day a 10 out of 10. A few children from his class showed him around and hung out with him at recess and lunch. He will be playing soccer for his school every Friday. They leave for two hours in the morning. Then come back to finish their day at school. It is a nice way to do it, but I will miss being able to watch him.
