The lunch at our school is made from scratch [entirely organic food-KA]. Its not a cafeteria like home but its like a fancy restaurant because they have white tablecloths over beautiful tablecloths that are many colors. They serve us lots of kinds of food that comes from Italy.
Its not like at home where they have one teacher. This is a picture of our school. (Below)

This is me and Astrea on the playground [the school's 1st grade only courtyard play area-KA].
(Below)This is me coming out of the school on the first day. The person who is next to me is one of my best friends at the school. Her name is Guila [the girl in the pink shirt, whose mother turns out to be an Italian anthropologist who works in Senegal!-KMA]. There are four Guilas in my class. The lady behind me is my teacher [In glasses and a dark jacket--Danielle actually has three teachers who form her daily teaching team, but this woman is her main teacher-KMA]

Here we are at the park [Danielle and two of the Guilas in her class on a playdate at Villa Sciarra].

Hi Danielle! I know your mom from Loyola. And I have three kids that go to school in Chicago! They like to look at your blog and learn about Italy! They really like the lunchroom at your Italian school and wish their school had one like it! They don't even have a playground at their school; just a parking lot to play kickball and jump rope. They think your school in Italy looks very nice. And they think it is amazing that you get to live in Italy! Can you tell us about Italian food and what kids like to play in Italy?
Thanks,

Hi Kelly, Andrew, Sarah and Simon,
Danielle was excited to find your message. Thank you! She said that Simon sounded like about her and and that she would like to meet him. She says she will write more about her school, school food, and the things kids in Italy do for fun very soon. Hope you are all well! -Kathleen (for Danielle)
