It looks like Madam's got a place at a really good school. Her name is down, forms have been delivered and they have two spaces in her year. We're just waiting for the Governors to sign off the forms and this part fills me with dread. We are well out of their catchment area; so what happens if someone who lives nearer arrives and delivers their forms before mine have been signed off - do they jump ahead?
My need to know meant I had to ring the dragon secretary who terrifies me and ask.
'Mrs FourFun we've only had your forms since Monday, you need to be a little bit patient, it won't take long!'
Patience has never been one of my strongest points so when it comes to my child's education and in all honesty having had them all at home far too long it doesn't come easily.
Fingers crossed there'll be good news next week and until then I have to relax and be patient which had me thinking back to this...

Her first day of school just 2 years ago; she was so tiny her feet didn't touch the ground when she sat in her chair for the whole first year. Oh dear, here we go again..!


Keeping everything crossed for you :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much - it worked :) xx
DeleteCute photo! Dreading the time when mine is going to school, luckily got a few years yet. Hope she gets the place!
ReplyDeleteThanks! She got the place, just waiting for one for my eldest now. Awful at first but not so bad once you get into it, my son was able to stay back a year in Ireland so he was 5 and we were both much more ready. My youngest seems very young to start nursery next year :( x
Deleteoooooh wishing you lots of luck
ReplyDeletei have had the letter this week asking me to apply for Burton;'s first ever place at school *sobs* my little boy has to go to school next september *cries again*. dreading it to be honest x
Hope he gets on ok and you get a nice place! I have to do C's nursery application by 7th Dec. I know he doesn't go until Sept but I just can't face thinking about him going off to nursery yet :(
DeleteGood luck, I was worried for months about getting Leo into school (not helped with my lack of understanding about the Cypriot school system!) so I know how you feel.
ReplyDeleteGot Madam into one :) just E to go and hoping to hear something next week! x
