I feel like I am playing at grown ups. Last evening we went to Jake’s ‘soon-to-be’ school for a welcome evening. Upon arrival we were ushered into ‘The Great Hall’ and given a glass of wine and canapes. The feeling of being back at school brought back mixed memories. Sitting in assembly trying to concentrate, the smell of dust and waxed floors.
The school itself is very good and I couldn’t wish for a better one for our little Jake. It will be sad to see him take his next step in life but also very exciting. I am sure he will love it, especially as his friends, Antonia and Martha are also going. On June 25th we will take him in for the morning so he can get accustomed to the environment. We will be staying for the two hours that the session will last.
We came away clutching our parents information pack. Now my mind is swimming with things such as uniforms, shoes, bags, name tags etc etc.
