Splash Party, Fox Elementary


While I continue to fret about the UK versus USA public education systems i.e. what have we lost... there are moments of joy.

It seems Mrs Harris is a closet party-planner and for three hours M's class got to splash in wading pools on the school's front lawn, compete in watermelon pip-spitting contests, chase ginormous bubbles, lounge on beach towels, create sidewalk art, hula hoop to their hearts content or just snack on good eats (!). Plus popsicles aka lollies for the wind-down.

Kindergarten is almost over for us and in the UK the class we were part of will be disbanding too and so life moves on... sigh
