Aside from the never-ending (until last night) festivities, school has gotten off to a great start. It's nice knowing most of the students already. In one class, they've clapped for me both times I've had class with them! And the new students seem fun. For example the new class of 1* ESO seems younger than the group last year, and they are so precious! They all say hello to me, and debate about the pronunciation of my name with "rr" which sounds different in English than it does in Spanish. Last week some even hugged me! Or the new kids in 1*BAC (sophomore/junior age) make the class huge but a good time. Here's hoping the first two weeks are a sign of things to come.
