School

I know dad told you there were two teachers for 10-12 children in Max's class... Let me tell you: it is even better! There are FOUR teachers on 10-12 children, plus there is a specialist teacher in the school (which has a total of 70 kids)!
In a "normal" class, there are 2 teachers on 18-20 children!
We are so lucky to be able to have Max in this school!!!
I decided there and then that we wanted him to go there!!!

The school's name is Rosegarden, and his class is the Porcupine! I was so excited when we got there today, that I forgot to take pictures, but they said we were welcome back to do that!

It has a art/crafts room, a computer room, a reading/physical activity room (with dress up clothes, gym things, books, and a big mattress with lots of pillows), a large playing room with a big mat on the floor, and lots of toys.
In the biggest room they had tables and chairs, a lighting table... oh, it's like I couldn't take it all in!
And all of this is just for Max's class!
They have their own kitchen/chef in the school, so the children will get nutritious meals, straight from there! In most schools they have the food made at another school or a retirement home!
One of the things I really liked hearing was that most of the staff had been there for several years; a couple of them had been there since it started 16 years ago; another one just retired; she had also been there for all the time!
That means they all like their jobs, the environment is good and of course that will be great for the kids!
We met the director; she said no parents, who had had their child in that class had ever regretted it!
It feels so great! I know the schools/day care in Sweden are good... but Liam's school and now this one are something extra! We are so fortunate!!!

Max will start on January 17 next year!!!

I need to get some sleep... will write more and post pictures later!!!
