First full day of school for Alice

A beautiful sunny day for the first full day of school for the three Kindergarden groups at Paul-Bruchési, Alice and Lily's school. As is the tradition, parents were invited to stay around in the schoolyard this morning for a "haie d'honneur" ritual of welcoming the new five-year-olds. Lily was there of course, with her classmates of 1ère année B.
Louise, with the funny grin and nice French accent, is a good friend from last year who is again in Lily's class this year.
All the older children are in place, two-by-two holding hands high up and ready to let the new ones come running through in the "passageway"... and here they come !! (some appear a little shy, I must say ;-)
Alice finishes her run around the yard as she passes under her proud sister's raised arms...
... and emerges at the end under her proud mother's watchful eye.
