Schooling Central

I am And it's day 1 of school and I've already baked my first plate of cookies It was a morning tea for the new prep parents, which I remember enjoying last year, so I thought I better return the favour.

You are such a sweetie, I bet all the prep mums and dads will think so, enjoying a cuppa and a biscuit after sending your little one off for his/her first day at school is a great idea.
I wont be joining our parents club, the women are sooooooooooo clicky and bitchy , but i will help out at the canteen

Oooh, I haven't done canteen duty yet I'm not sure that I'll get away with that for another year lol!

The Prep morning tea was nice. It's such a big moment for parents sending their little ones to school for the first time, and it's also a big transition for parents arriving into the school community. The school hands out little survival packs -last year it was a chocolate with a teabag so that parents can have a quiet cuppa and read an enclosed poem about children starting out on a life journey of education (or something along those lines!). Actually I think an instruction manual written by other parents may have been more practical , but it's a sweet gesture by the school.
