2 weeks at Aoga Amata: Pre-School.

Isis has developed a routine when she goes to Aoga-Amata, in the morning she's has this 'I don't want to go to school' attitude and cries when we get there, but she eventually settles. Then when it's time to pick her up she's got this 'I don't want to go home attitude' - You can never win with this girl. Ha!

I know she has developed a close friendship with one of the children, that's mainly because she has grown up with her since birth, they are literally a month a part and have known each other since then, so she always has a lot to say about her friend 'Penina' and always wants me to bring her home with us.

Today when we got home she was showing me the new song she learnt at Aoga-Amata.

Tiny Tim the little turtle who had bubbles stuck in

his throat from eating to much soap.

It was so delightful watching her explain the song.

After she's had her mini crying session on our way home she will be back

to her normal bubbly self, at the moment we ask her in Samoan

'O ai lo faiaoga?' - 'Who is your teacher?'

and seeing how there are 3 teachers at her Aoga,

she will name one - 'Akesa' 

And for some strange reason she always says 'Akesa' and 'Cyanny'

Cyan is one of my girls daughters who is a couple of years older then her :) 

So far so good, I guess - Still settling in to her new environment, 

and learning to trust those around her, getting familiar with the

teachers and getting use to the Aoga Routine as a whole.

Love you Big girl.
