Sunday,
Hi all. I'm under the trees, in the shade, listening to the girls practising for their concert later in the week. We were relaxing over breakfast early this morn when the welcoming parties began to arrive. Firstly, Augustine from Notre dame with his wife and 2 children splendidly attired for mass. Then Fr Alex from St james's schoolacross the road with a student, samuel, and a welcome basket of fruit and chocolate from the students family.
Off we went in convoy to mass. Met Naomi and teachers and 10 girls from Notre Dame. It was a feast for the eyes and the ears, all 2hrs 40mins of it and yes we shimmied to the altar akwardly while the parishoners moved rythmically and sang at full force. We were greeted from the altar by name and Anne on our behalf accepted a gift of more chocolate..life is good. The girls loved it all. They are all smiles and enthusiastic.
i believe that some of that joy may turn to nerves soon as they have been asked to go and change into their school uniform to meet the teachers in a while so as to prepare for the week ahead. This is the big part where they will separate out into individual
