This weekend was Larysa's chance to say goodbye to her Year 6 class from her old school on Saturday and say hello to the girls in her new school on Sunday.
Josie, Katie's mum, did a great job of organizing the Year 6 leaving BBQ at the local rugby club, there were 2 bouncy castles, a DJ and everyone brought food enough for all.

Luckily we had Kos, Melanie's dad, who made sure the music was being danced to by all, parents included. I was fine when Larysa dragged me onto the dance floor for Cha-Cha Slide, but not so pleased when she insisted I shake my booty to YMCA. I mean please, why are we teaching our children moves from a disco anthem anyway?
The next day, I was responsible for helping the PA at Larysa's new school (it's Stefanie's school too) to set up for the welcoming BBQ for all the new Year 7 parents. I spent most of my time sticking labels on people, managing the music and recruiting parents to join the PA. I was hoping that Larysa would meet some of the girls she'll be going to school with in September, but it turned out that by the time we had all the girls have their labels stuck on them indicating which class they would be in, Larysa had met only girls from other classes.
"That's ok Mum, I'll have a better chance to get to know them when we all start school anyway."
Sometimes, Larysa can be very realistically optimistic.
