Playtime

We spent the morning with a number of other L'Etoile du Nord parents helping to assemble one of these alongside the school. (Actually, it looked completely different, with a way-cool climbing wall -- but same company, same approximate size.) These things are well-engineered, and you get a professional installer to supervise the effort. Everything went together surprisingly smoothly, despite a few skinned knuckles, and the cement truck showed up at the absolute perfect time. The hardest part was keeping the kids off of it while we were working.

I met fellow Worther and French Immersion parent "Ibarus" there. I hope he won't mind my leaking the fact that his last name is Mayo: it was the Meeting of the Condiments.
