I took this photo from the carpark across from the school and it struck me that there is a real blend of modern and historical here.  The sleek glass elevator in the photo is an unexpected sight – especially because it takes you up to the old town.

Our parent teacher interview went well.  It is so strange to hear my child conversing with someone in another language and understanding words I cannot!  She is doing really well at school and enjoying the many challenges being presented every day.  I am sure that by the end of the year the girl standing next to me will have grown in more ways than we could have imagined.
