I am so proud of the way the have copped with the massive change in their lives. It has not been a easy transition for the kids going to the school they have been at this year.

Leaving home at 7.30am and travelling so far everyday has also been a huge change from our one minute drive around the corner to school at home.

Eliza has faced the biggest challenges with the subjects she has done. Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Environmental Management and French. These have been the hardest and most foreign of the subjects she has done. Along with Maths that was far advanced in comparison to what she had ever done at home.

So report day was today and she has done pretty well, all things considered. She finished 9th in her class of 20 and has really opened up socially this term, much to her teachers delight.

Sam......What can I say, he has done well with A's and B's in all his subjects and possibly a D in his conduct according to his C**P teacher. (But we all really love Sam, he is so funny, but so naughty) Get the drift? Lets just say we are very happy to have him OUT of there. Her discipline methods left alot to be desired.

Now begins the LONG break. 15 weeks to be exact. We have 12 more days in Chennai till we depart to cooler weather. Nearly 9 weeks at home and then back here to start the new school year at AISC. Lets hope it's all we are wishing and hoping for. Another new school for the kids to get used to and new friends to make. And hopefully lots of discipline for my Sam.
