Are the little darlings back to school next week, Am I safe to take a week off ?

[*chez*]

hmmm.. depending on where you live I'd wait until the week after..  Son goes back Wednesday and the school I work in  pupils are back Thursday..

Ok week after it is then, 

Now my son is grown up (debatable some times)   I like to have my first holiday after the summer hols when the kids have gone back

quieter shops and attractions and even quieter in the garden.

Hubby can't get the same week off so I will be all on my own - shame

The schools around here are all staggered over different days this week.  My nextdoor neighbour is a classroom assistant at the local special needs school and she starts back tomorrow.   Our haidressers two go to two different schools - one a primary and the other a high school and they both start back on Wednesday.

Must be a nightmre if you have more than one child, going to different schools,  I am glad those days have gone

Our hairdresser came last Thursday and she was saying when they went back.  That's how I knew.

Three of ours go back on Thursday.  Youngest,  first day in reception and eldest,  first day in high school.  The one in Selsey goes back tomorrow I think.  I'm just going to start and put the name tags on two big bags of new uniform for the littlest.

It used to be a nightmare when we had 3 youngsters in schools in 3 different counties - the school hols never matched.

My son goes back on Thursay 'cos of two teacher inset ays at beginning of term (presumably

six an a half weeks isn't long enough!).

At work the chilren who catch our school buses are back tomorrow, so I'm back to work riving

them.
