We are doing sessional kinder because ill be home on mat leave but our catchment has upped kinder hours, you can do 10, 12 or 15 hours so dd is doing 2 days 8.30 till 4 very very happy about that!!

I find that there is more variety at sessional kinder, dd is in kinder at cc at the moment and a close friend is sessional, they have mums day lunches and excursions and more people visit (fire fighters etc) and concerts and different crafts and learning programs so I must admit I'm really looking forward to all that next year . Dd on the other hand, well its just childcare to me. I don't get to see work she has done unless its up so they only way I know she is making progress is when she is at home sounding out letters that we haven't learnt together yet or things like that.
