As many of you are aware, I am mum to 2 children… Emma is 4 and Benjamin is nearly 18 months. As Emma will be off to school next year, we are faced with that decision that so many of you will have faced… where do we send her for school? Emma is a sensitive little girl, but also extremely strong willed (read defiant and contrary) so we want to make especially sure that she goes to the right institution.
Last night Greg and I attended our first “Information Night” at a local private school. This afternoon, we have another one to go to. The public school that we are zoned for is quite some distance away, but we will be checking that out too.
Going through all the options is mind boggling… but last night’s school will be a hard act to follow. The programs offered include all the “normal” stuff (English, Maths, Science etc) but then there’s also swimming lessons, music and dancing classes, and languages such as Japanese and french. Even kindergarten kids do Japanese. It’s just amazing… school has changed a lot since I was there.
So Im very excited, but a little bit daunted by it all. Im guessing that life is just about to change again…
I’ll let you know what we decide.
Above is a 6×6 layout of the kids being cute… although they aren’t always this charming! And below, I’ve shown one way of converting the 6×6 page into a 12×12 layout.

Gorgeous layouts! Hope everything falls into place with the school/s, though you’ll never really know what a place is like until you have been there a while
