Pre school

We have been looking for Sydney a pre school and it seemed like we were to late because everyone seemed to have a long waiting list then I kept calling and we finally found one close to the villa if we ever get there, but that is another story. The curriculum is Montessori based which cover Montessori concepts which include themes, sensorial, practical life exercises, languages, math, science and culture, environment, sports and finally music and drama. She will have half the studies in English and the other in Spanish. The hours are different from home 8:15am to 1:15pm they do have extended times, but we will mainly have her there for those hours. They will even pick up your child and drop them off just like a regular school does at home, aka the bus. I believe Paul will take Sydney to school and we are thinking about having the bus bring her home. Seeing how we only have one car. We are thinking about getting something used though. It is hard to believe our little girl is growing up, but she is. I am excited for her to go to school and make friends, but I will sure miss her. One thing about it she will be keeping busy and learning a lot and it will give me sometime to volunteer or do something for myself while she is gone and there is still plenty of time in the day for us to be together. I am also tring to get her into a mommy and me dance and guess what they have kindermusik here just like home and they have a class in the evening and I was thinking about doing that with Sydney and also we plan to join a mom and toddler group that meet once a month on the second Tuesday of every month. It sounds like a lot, but I think it will be fun. Sydney's first day of school is Sept. 6.
