School Fun Night 2007

Friday night was the school's fun night. If you got there late enough you managed to miss the boring-as-batshit address from the dopey-as-$%^& headmaster. But that's another story.

Last year Yu-Jin lined up for face painting for ages and just missed out. Then he lined up for rock climbing and they closed just before he could have a turn. This year they had daylight savings and Miky went before I left work. I met them later and Yu-Jin got his face painted, attempted the rock climbing and had a couple of rides in the cars. The kids are better drivers than most of those on Perth's road although there were a few bingles.

Whilst waiting in line Yu-Jin was talking about his friend Luke and the woman standing in line with her son in front of us turned around and asked Yu-Jin if he was in year one. "Yes", came the response. The truth is he is in the mixed year 1/2 class. This woman was so excited to meet another parent she shook my hand and introduced herself. I asked Yu-Jin if there were two Lukes in the class and he said no. Then the truth came to light. I thought that it was really nice of the lady to introduce herself and not act light one of the all too snooty parents that the school seems to attract.
