Oh i love Gavin and Stacey too! :) Hang on i don't get this...at what age do kid's start school in the US? And what's the first year of school called? Our 1st year of school is called reception class and is for 4 and 5 year olds.
The first week in September. Kid's here get 6 weeks off for summer and a further 8 weeks off throughout the school year. That will be why we don't get as long a holiday in the summer. How old is 8th grade? Is it 12-13yrs like our year 8?
They actually break up tomorrow. All this complaining for nothing! lol But my daughter has to go to summer school till the 1st August so it won't feel like they've broke up till then really.
They get out at 3.05pm. It's something to do with the amount of teacher training days theyve had this year i think. It's my son's 9th birthday today and he's never spent a birthday at school...till now :)
The weather here, for a change is beautiful and sunny! Bet it starts raining once they finally do finish school. I'm just tired of rushing around like mad woman ironing uniform, packed lunches every morning. I want to chill and sleep late! lol
I know this is a really pointless post but i swear this has to be the longest school year EVER! :( Most of the school's here have already broke up, but not my childrens school.
