Every Thursday afternoon the girls' school takes the K-2 classes skating at the Navan Arena. The arena is a couple of blocks from the school and all the classes trudge over loaded down with gear for a 30 min. skate. The parents come along to help, because with a gaggle of Kindergarten to Grade 2s, almost no one can manage to get their skates on by themselves.
I was one of the parents this last Thursday and once again was struck by how very blessed we are to live in a village where all the children have known each over from nursery school. And they know us too. You are just as likely to have one of the girls'' little friends skate up and grab your hand as you are to have one of your own holding on to you for support. It's one of those perfect little moments that brings home how lucky we are to be living here.
