DD says she hates them all.

however she did say the DT teacher was funny.

DD was looking forward to DT this morning and Science, apparently her teacher is gorgeous. She is a bit disappointed with maths as she has two teachers and one of them is new and can't control the class, which is a shame as she is very mathmatically minded.

DD only started yesterday, so hasn't had many (though lunch definitely made an impression), but DH looked at her timetable for today and said, 'If you can survive German and Chemistry first thing, you can cope with anything', which I didn't really think was in the right spirit...

hasn't had all his lessons yet...

but so far loves science and art and, RS (because it was philosophy and ethics and everything!)

Drama and Spanish. The only thing she can say properly is hello. Mind you we are going to Spain in Feb half-term so there is plenty of time..

Ds loves everything (only day 3 though!).

He really liked French, and was rather taken by Mademoiselle which I'm sure enhanced his enjoyment!

Astonishingly, he enjoyed Dance! They had to pretend to be fireworks shooting into the sky. Ds is terrible at sporty things and PE. He has two left feet and moves at a slothful speed. He was really apprehensive about this Dance subject as he thought it offered endless opportunities for humiliation. But he said the teacher (male in mini shorts with bouffant hair) was very friendly and cheerful and the lesson was great fun.
