The Larnas School

The school at Larnas was one classroom in this building. Across the road was a field full of goats; Down the road about 100 meters was an 11th century church. The school held the Kindergarten, first grade and second grade in one classroom with one teacher and an assistant. The kids took a bus to the school in the morning, back to St. Vincent (about 5 km) for lunch and at the end of the day.

The play ground was a small courtyard but the boys still managed to play soccer there EVERY chance they got. There's Sam with his red jacket in the thick of it. The kids did get one recess in a grassy area across from the church. They had a little walk to get there but it was worth it for the swings and grass field.

Sam and Claire were part of the Kindergarten class. Here's Claire holding Ouria's hand on the way back from their 'green' recess.

At their campout they did some water colour of their interpretation of the gorge at Ardeche. Sam is standing proudly under his.

Just a quick look at their classroom. Annie and Madeleine enjoyed the Open House to view their siblings artwork and displays of what they had been learning.
