The layout of the office at Isabella Plains school is open, friendly, child focused, brightly coloured, comfortable with its cosy seating nook and coffee table, displaying work the students have completed and the school achievements.
I was relieved.
Cedie, however, had taken on my negativity and was unsure that this school would provide what we were looking for.
The office manager offered a cup of tea and Ii found her friendliness reassuring , The Principal arrived and with an exited flourish introduced herself and we began a tour of the school.
Cedie's classroom and play areas, the hall, science facilities and computer lab. By the end of the tour we had learnt about the caring school community very like the one we had come from in Glen Aplin, Stanthorpe.I have no reservations about staying in Canberra now that Cedie will be OK at school. Her Principal has a Blue tongue lizard just like Cedie, so they compared notes on feeding and general habitat maintenance and got along together just fine.
Next stop Demelza's School.
