First Formal School

Time really flies so fast. Tonicci started Junior Kindergarden  last September at St. Mary's Catholic School. It's a 10 minute walk from where we live and he goes for 2 1/2 hours. We're happy that there was no tantrum/crying on his first day. We kept on talking to him about school weeks before it even started. We also showed him the route we planned on taking every morning to get there, which we think helped his transition. The big adjustment was his wake up time. He has to be awake by 7:30 am to make it on time for his 8:30 class- the reason that he's now in bed by 7pm.

Luckily, his Mama Elsie and Papa Serge were able to see and visit St.Mary's during their stay with us. They brought  him there every morning, and then picked him up before noon. This was during their entire visit here in Toronto.

He's very happy in his new school and said that he loves it more than daycare. We as parents only wish for him to make lots of new friends, explore and just have fun.
