Now we are approaching the end of August and many parents (albeit secretly) are counting down the days for the arrival of peace, quiet and time to themselves that the start of the new school term brings! But of course, behind every silver lining there is always a black cloud hiding! This is of course the start of the new school year.
The brief sigh of relief that the return to school will bring is completely drowned out by the thought of the last minute rushing around getting the uniforms, P.E kit and countless other items that will need to be purchased and organised, so that the kids are set and ready, prepared for the long slog up until the Christmas break.
Those with older kids have a slightly easier time of it as any changes of uniform and routines are already established but for those parents who find themselves having to cope with the event of moving to the ‘big school’ this is quite a daunting prospect.
Once all of the new blazers, badges and ties have been bought there is still all of the sewing on and going through the brochure with a fine toothed comb to make sure that everything is set and nothing has been missed. There is however salvation at hand! Just take some solace that once September has passed, all will be downhill from then and after all, next year will bring another army of frantic parents desperately trying to get the kids and themselves together for the first day of term!
