The kids a back in school

What a relief, the kids are back in school :-) This new term they are having a new head of school and the drastic change that the school encountered is the kids have to wear uniforms! This morning, Adnin & Aqilah look really great in their uniforms - polo shirt, grey pants and school sweatshirt. One problem, the sweatshirts are too big for them! This is one of the challenges of morquio kids. The smallest size that the school has, is still too big for Aqilah especially. This morning, one of the parents was commenting on Aqilah, 'ahhh so cute...'

Adnin is in Year 4 while Aqilah is in year 1.5, in that the class will cover some of year 2's curriculum. Since there are many students for year 1, they have two classes; the regular one and the extra-regular one. Aqilah is in the extra-regular one - it's a small group consists of smart kids I guess. If not they would not be able to learn the year 2's curriculum...For record purposes, there are 238 students this year.

I'll be seeing the teacher that is involved in admin tomorrow. I gave her the booklet on Morquio this morning and she wants to discuss it further. Probably as a precautionary measure for the kids. How nice...
