First Day of School

Today was our first day at St. Anthony School.  There was a lot of running around and screaming by the younger students.  Also, we were surprised that all students get 3 recesses a day!  The last one is 1/2 hour before the end of the school day.  Here are some pictures.


This picture above is of St. Anthony primary school looking down from the high school.

This picture shows the SHS delegation processing in to the gym for the welcome ceremony.

The dance club was dressed up as cowgirls and they performed a dance for us.  Then the kids who came to SHS performed their dance for the entire school.  It was great to see them again.

The founder then gave us all a tour of the school.  It took us over an hour.  We went in to each preschool room, and the students performed for us.

Outside of every classroom was a sign welcoming us to the school.  We really did feel so welcomed.
The school has a butterfly garden.  The classrooms are in charge of taking care of this.

The picture above is of the high school gym.  The primary school has one as well.  It is open to the outside, but can be closed in bad weather.

Here we all are sitting on the steps that lead from the primary school to the high school.

Today we will practice our cultural show while the students are taking an exam.  After recess, we will be presenting our powerpoint show to students in grades 4-6 (we will do it about 9 times today, we think).
