Had our final day at Kinder, was bitter sweet.
DD1 & her bestie almost had me in tears, they were both asking us if they could change schools so they could be together.
Then there was tears & hugging and when can we see each other again & then more hugging.
So we promised them they could up during the holidays & have play dates & maybe go to the movies.
Otherwise it was a great day, so much food & lots of photos & presents!
We have everything for DD1 but a school jacket/jumper, also have some extra clothes on lay by. We don't get a book list it's included in her fees so that's good but we will get her some things for home.
I'm sure she'll be fine Tan - if anything she'll get more attention because she's new!
Oh Cheshire that's so sad!! My DD2 was in a really tight knit group of 4 in kindy and while all the kids are continuing at the same school, three of the kids are together in one class and the other one has been put into a different class. They will all still be able to play together at recess and lunch, but her mum is too scared to tell her that her little friends won't be with her in class next year. Seems very harsh but I'm sure the teachers had good reasons for it.
My gorgeous girl goes to school next year. She is so excited and more than ready. I am excited for her! I don't think I will have any tears or sadness. I remember starting school and thinking it was the best thing ever! I think she will be the same too. She loved her smooth start days (the days they have at school to get used to it, meet teachers, see the classrooms etc...) We live in a small town and she has gone to pre school this year with most of the kids she will start school with. And she loves the teachers who will be teaching kindy next year too!
My little girl is off to prep next year. It's her last day of kindy tomorrow, wonder if I can hold back the tears!
I am so happy for her though, she is so ready for school and she loved her school transition days. Fingers crossed she settles in well and makes lots of lovely friends. I'm a little sad for her that her best friend is going to a different school, so far she has taken it all in her stride but that could change once reality sets in and her little bestie isn't there at the first day of school.
