Alex and Patrick went this morning to investigate the pre-school he will be going to: Step By Step: "Our programmes are based on bilingual curriculum with a multicultural focus. We aim to provide your children with a stimulating environment in which they can play, explore and learn. Our particular focus is on the development of language and especially on biliteracy."

Both of them liked it and Patrick begins with the new school year next Tuesday.

The roving plant man came by earlier, Alex and Patrick got some nice plants and trees for the terrace. The awning repair people come this evening to assess whether the awning (tent) can be repaired or needs to be replaced.
