It's amazing to think that this is an elementary school. in other countries this would be at least a university or even the Houses of Parliament...

ReplyDeleteElementary, that's young kids isn't it? I can't believe this is an elementary school - it looks far too grand! How fantastic for the kids to learn in such a great environment.
ReplyDeleteIf you posted this photo without a title or text, I would have thought it was a courthouse. Such grand pillars!
ReplyDeleteIt's so regal and dignified looking. The kids that attend school there should be really proud!
