A musical, art adventure

William and Oliver went to their first classes here in Shanghai this week.  They did an hour of 'Musical Adventure' followed by an hour of 'Story Art' - where you the teacher reads a story and the children create their own picture interpretation over a few lessons.  Music was first and the idea is that you leave the children there and go for a coffee!  No such luck for me and Sue! I had built myself up for leaving the boys for the first time ever in this type of situation but it was not possible as they didn't want us to go and I didn't want them to disrupt the class.  We ended up sitting in the corner watching both classes which I am quite pleased we did as they were excellent classes.  Next week I hope to be able to move to the bench outside the door and to send Sue for takeaway coffees!
