Those rude and arrogant French....

Actually, the Director of the School (www.ecolenepal.com) Monique Dehon, charmed my socks off. She personally met me at the front gate and gave me a tour. Introduced me to all the teachers. It's definitely our cup of tea or pastis as it were. Reminds me of our fantasy school in Manhattan in the West Village--St. Lukes an Episcopal School that's out of our range both in price and probably acceptance (The school rejects about 90% of its applicants and let's face it--our kids our not that smart) The French School was recently certified as an official bilingual school (French-English) by the French Government. Coincidentally, there may be a new bilingual public school near our NYC neighborhood which may give ODC a headstart should we move to Nepal. And the French bus picks up near Gombu's house where we probably be living--the stars are lining up--NYC, then Kathmandu, then Paris...
