And I thought USI's education system is harsh and starts early!
I also believe "creativity time" must be given, especially for
gifted children.

Good point. I wanted to make USI's education system differently,
but the Head of Legislative convinced me that preschoolers
should not have to be in kindergarten longer than the average
full-time employed adult goes to work.
But I managed to put the focus on science, math and technology
without too much interference from the HoL (Acronym for Head of
Legislative).

I am also keen on starting a University, with studies in:

And I know this stretches far more than just primary school, but

Among others. If there is something I want for Trebia is it to
become a river of infinite knowledge.
