He is imaginative and curious, asking questions about the inside and outside world. The school's nervousness and excitement lead it to do some minor acts of rebellion throughout the day, like turning on the sprinklers or accidentally locking a child in a classroom.

She is eager to make a good impression and welcome the students and teachers with open arms. She wears a nice red outfit to express her excitement and dedication to her new position.
