Caleb Starts School Tomorrow
It's crazy to think that Caleb will be starting school tomorrow! I can't believe how quickly he's grown up!Caleb will be heading into prep, which is the equivalent of North American Kindergarten. It's five full days of school per week, 8:30 - 2:45, which is a pretty long day for him, especially considering that most days he still has a two hour nap in the afternoon.
Yesterday Caleb did the assessments that all the kids in his class need to do. Tamara took him, and apparently Caleb was ahead for his "number recognition". He picked out the number 280, which is apparently pretty good for a 5-year old. Tamara and I reckon that he learned that high of a number from watching the cricket...
I have a feeling that Caleb's favourite class will probably be physical education, which is quite the opposite of his dad (I can still hear Mr Malcom singing out "come-on Big Billy!!!" from Jr. High gym class). Tamara and I are still trying to figure out where his natural sporting ability comes from. On the orientation day for Reef to Outback Caleb was teaching the North American's how to play cricket, it was very funny to watch.
