Noah Vacation: School Writings

Before each vacation, Noah's teachers (Rachel and Gabriella) give us his French and English Folders to look at. Below are a few pages I thought were cute and funny.

Noah was very amused/surprised/impressed with the way 
bats flip over head up to pee it seems...

why should cow not be spelled kaow... makes sense to me!

Noah Vacation: Camp (March 3-7 2014)

During the second week of vacation, Noah went to the school sponsored camp. Like his school, it was bilingual English/French. He did sports and art and cooking and had tons of fun. Below some pics the camp counselors took.

First day get together - can you spot Noah?
(the camp was for Petite-Grande Section kids so ages 3-6)

Let the games begin

The yellow shirts playing soccer against the orange shirts I think

Sandwich? (Noah in the grey T-shirt)

Silly face time

Making waffles - guess who volunteered???

He had a blast and the minute it was over, asked to do the next camp in May...
