    Back to school !

    It was a nice, intense morning in the French Alps …







    Two wee lassies were off to school…










    All the way down to the village of Brizon in Haute-Savoie






    Evangeline is discovering her new school …still quite up in the mountains , as you can see in the back ground.







    All went well.



    Best,

    Robert

    3 years old.

    Kindergarden has 3 levels, small, medium and older sections. When they are six they actually start elementary school but they already know how to read, write… and behave in a classroom.
