Activities week at school!








Sarah just completed activity week where they got to do fun activities each day!

They started the week off by going to a bamboo forest. At the forest, they got to have a picnic lunch, take a walk, pet donkeys, and learned how to play a bamboo flute! Sarah had a great time!

Another day, they had pirates and princess day! Sarah dresssed up as Rapunzel! She had a great time being a princess at school for the day! They even got to go on a tressure hunt in the woods to find treasures!

What a great way to spend the week with fun activities each day!

Sports Day!

Sarah participated in sports day at school! Form 1 through 4 competed against eachother in races such as egg spoon race, running race, ball race,skipping rope race, sack race, etc. The girls competed against eachother. Sarah enjoyed it and it was fun to cheer on the yellow team and form 1. The yellow team won second place.

Juan Les Pin Yellow Subermine












The yellow subermine is called visiobulle. It is where they take you out to millioinaire bay(very exclusive estates) and then alllow you to go down below deck where there are windows so you can see fish, and sea life. It felt like being in a subermine! The kids really enjoyed it! It was a fun activity with grandma!

Juan Les Pins






Juan les Pins is a beach town that we have really enjoyed. We discovered a fun waterfront restaurant called Le Trident.

The first time we went, we had gone with my mom. It was nice to sit on the beach and have lunch! The restaurant has its own private beach, so its nice to swim in the water and play in the sand there. We went back to Le Trident and reserved their beach loungers! It was nice to relax on the beach with the service of good food and drinks! We all swam in the water and played in the sand! What a great way to spend a day!

The pool is now 70 degrees so we have all been enjoying the pool, especially with the heat wave! This is the first time having a pool in the backyard and we are loving it!

Dolphins at Marineland

One of our favorite activities to do at Marineland is to play ball with the dolphins! It is great to see how the dolphins love to play and enjoy talking while playing!

Sarah's 6th Birthday Party
















There is an unbelievable amount of money that classmates of Sarah's spend on birthday parties. They are fun to attend, but there is no way that we can provide that kind of party. Therefore, we just invited Sarah's girl friends for a paint your own pottery party in Biot. It was a great way to celebrate and everyone enjoyed it!
