GOODBYE MISS ARTEMIOU!

Today is the last day of school for Lilly and the last day with her teacher, Miss Artemiou.
In Italy we have a system where the kids are taught by the same teacher for the first 5 years of schooling, but here in England kids change teacher every year.
For some reason Miss Artemiou was "allowed" to be with them for two years in a row.
She has been a wonderful teacher, and we are grateful for all the help she gave Lilly as she tried (and wonderfully succeeded) to shed most of her shyness away!
Miss Artemiou has been a "local" all her life, she was a pupil in that same school (not that long ago, ehehe...), it's funny to think that she even had the same ballet teacher Lilly and Kim had not so long ago!
It must be so sweet to teach in the same school you attended as a child.
Until last year the welfare lady (a sort of school nurse) was the same that used to put plasters on Miss Artemiou!
Even though we are excited about Lilly's next year teacher (that is said to be particularly good), we are sad to say goodbye to "our" Miss Artemiou, as she has been a warm, considerate, part of all our lives for these past two years!
