In light of the fact that the kids start school in only 2 more weeks, we decided to visit the school which they'll be attending yesterday to get the ho down. They will be going to Carachipampa Christian School which an international english school run by the US mission SIM. The school is a place for missionary families from all over the world and as well includes national Bolivian families as well. They have classes from k-12 and each class has between 12-17 students which is nice. Matthew being in grade 7 will be classed as high school. Schools in a warm climate country are quite different than Canada. The classes are in buildings but you must go outside to the next class or building. It's like a mini university campus. Lunches can be eaten inside or outside, the bathrooms are a separate building outside.The hallways are outside as opposed to in. Brian and I look forward to the opportunity the kids have to experience school in a novel way from North America. They will have to take a school bus each day as the school in just outside the Cochabamba limit in the neighboring community. Today we went and purchased their uniforms for the year. I must admit this is something I am looking forward to. The daily struggle of what to wear is now down to a limited option, blue shorts, blue pants or blue skirt. I think Matthew will pass on the third option.
