It's over 20 years ago I went to my youngest's last assembly at Primary School but things don't change much do they? The one thing I always noticed was that the children who looked so big, in their last primary year, looked so small in their first year at High School.
I don't know what it's like, now, where you are but our local High School is so big (over 1500 pupils - I think it's far
too big) I really feel for the kids who will start in September. My memory's long enough to remember how lost I felt on my first day at Paddock House, all those years ago - 54 years to be precise, and there were less than 200 girls there then. All children starting High School deserve an extra cuddle and a very special tea on their first day.
