Well there was excitement and chaos in the Hancock household this morning as it was Olivers first day at his new school, he could not wait to get into his new uniform and get down the hill!. The uniform is lovely but very different. All the children have wide brimmed sunhats here, Ol calls his a cowboy hat and they all have massive rucksacks for school bags. Was a bit nervous I would end up with this and the double buggy but no Oliver did not take that thing off his back until he was in the class.
His school is huge and goes all the way up to year 12 with 650 children attending. The kinder year has six teachers with approx 20 children per class. They have not been allocated their teachers yet, apparently that happens next week???!!. It is much less formal than I expected and when I popped in yesterday with Ols epipens I was greeted by a lovely lady, Lynda who gave me lots of advice on playgroups for Alex and good local GPs. I later found out she is the Assistant Principal of the school. It seems a friendly place!. All I have to get over is the steps at the school, impossible with the buggy and the mountain to climb on the two returns home per day. Well here he is, totally different to Marchwood but very cute all the same.
