Today is the first day of a full school week in 2010 and both Callum and Conrad took it in their stride. Callum still has to find out about some of his classes and teachers but Conrad’s class has already been allocated a classroom as well as their teacher for the year.

Hard to believe that another school year has started and that 2010 will be Conrad’s last year at Hurstville South Public School. I so remember when Callum started Kindy there and how small the school was then. HSPS now has a large new building, many more students and new hall, which is desperately needed, is being built at the moment. It is lovely that one of the oldest schools in the area (built 1918) is still going strong and expanding.

Callum started year 8 and is happy to see some of his friends again after the long holiday break. It is funny listening to him talk about the year 7 students. Remembering what it was like to be new at the school last year and he made some interesting observations after his first day back.
