Today, finally the school reopened...!
It was raining heavily since last night - a perfect weather to go to school. Since my own kindergarten days I have always loved going to school when it's raining. There's something in the dark skies and the rains that makes everything singular and special to me.
I was extremely happy to be back. I met everyone and greeted them fondly. Cl really is like me a lot - she too was happy like me to be back and we hugged each other in such fondness that tears sprang to our eyes. Despite our exciting holidays we both had missed the school life and each other in equal measure. She is such a darling! I really love her.
Mgt has also come back. There were a few new faces to be seen in the staff. It will take me some time to remember their names. One new teacher is coming to our group too. Maybe we'll see her tomorrow or any other day this week.
We have three new kids in our class and the rest are from the smaller group. A new boy Ja looks and even behaves a lot like Mk the little boy in our class in the last session who had left the school suddenly. J is a square and sturdily built, blond boy who likes to be independent and exert all the masculinity he is capable of. Even though it was his first day he didn't cry at all and enjoyed all our activities. I have already started loving him so much and even more so because he reminds me of Mk in each and everything.
The other kids have been promoted to our group from their previous group so they were well acquainted with the school ways but still appeared lost and insecure due to new classroom and new teachers. Fr, the cute little Spanish boy, was the only one who felt completely at his ease and didn't trouble at all.
We also had a hurried little staff meeting today during the school time when most of the children were sleeping. Stf just talked about some routine stuff like cleaning, admissions etc. She said we are running in loss so we need to take in as many children as we are capable of to increase the inflow of money.
On the whole it was a hectic day; all the furniture and toys and other important things were quite in disarray and so many important tasks had to be accomplished with three new children and their parents right on top of our heads but whatever I am not complaining. I am extremely happy to be back and just loving it...!
