Starting Our New School Today




New School Collage


Originally uploaded by EclipseAu

Today, saw the girls start at St Mary's Primary School.

We had been sweating on whether it was the right thing to do or not, seeing as we had already moved schools with JP in year 2. But after meeting the teachers and seeing how motivatedthey were about the kids learning and how friendly everyone is our fears have now dissapated.

Westarted the morning by visiting the uniform shop to get them new uniforms. Then we accompanied them to their classes to meet their teachers.

A very positive experience all up. A few tears from Mum but all is well. I expected some clinginess from CB but didn't happen.

We werevvery impressed by the year 1 teacher ( Mrs J ). She had everything happening in the classroom that the previous schol didn't. Visual aids of letters and numbers on the desks. Interesting things ok the walls.

Our first impressions are very good.

First Day Back

Well, today is the day. The first day back at work after a 5 weeks off with the kids. You couldn't really call it a holiday though as we didn't go away anywhere. Surprisingly, I am actually not apprehensive about the return to work as the break was sufficiently long enough to clear my head of all the troubles and happenings of the past year. That and I enjoy the work I do, in the main.
