Whoa!! That's crazy!! I hate to think what will be the 'norm' (for want of a better word!) when my DD reaches Grade 6!!

I remember my Grade 6 graduation clearly... I wore a floral skort (remember those things, shorts and skirt combined?!), a white frilly top (delightful), flat shoes with white frilly socks (am I painting a pretty picture?) and my mum blow dried my bobbed hair for me. No nails (or polish) and no makeup. Oh, we also did some bush dancing.

OK, so I did graduate from Grade 6 in the late 80's but at least we were allowed to be 'kids'
