DD1 goes back on 4 February but I'm not actually sure when DD2 goes back - the school is fantastic for teaching but the admin leaves a lot to be desired and I got the letter with details for year 1, not pre-primary!!

What is everyone doing about shoes? Kindy and pre-primary they wear black sneakers, so I just got some velcro ones but DD1 needs proper black leather shoes this year. They're supposed to be lace up, but there's a fair bit of leniency given for the littlies and they're allowed to have buckles, but DD1 is determined to have laces. Can anyone's 5 year old do them up by themselves??
