Kids are filled with a nervous energy as they wait to see if their friends from the previous year are in their new class. Shouts of joy can be heard from those who find out that their friends are with them in their new class while kids who aren't so lucky look around pensively.
Parents, seem to share a bemused look as they try to make sense of the madness of hundreds of children milling around teachers holding signs and calling out their particular class and grade.
"Any child who has been assigned 'Lac Erie' as their class please line up over here"!
"'Lac Huron' kids are with me over there!"
"Here?"
"No there!"
Are parents happy that the summer break is over and they don't have to constantly figure out what summer activities they need to do with their kids? Or are they a touch sad as they witness yet another milestone in their children's lives? mmmm I'm guessing the former :)
Teachers - wow! The summer has worked its refreshing magic and they radiate newfound sources of energy. They are dressed to the nines and giving high fives and hugs to all their last years students. Haha save that energy teachers! You'll need it in the depths of March when that kid with the curly hair in the back of the room has glued a pencil to his hair again.
The first day of grade three. Definitely not for the faint of heart!
