Kids back to school

Hayzel and Kevin took today off, to be able to go with the kiddies when they started in their new classes (Ewan, of course started Reception Year - big school!).  It was very hot today - 29 to 30 degrees and about as humid as Durban, phew!  Who said the weather was crap in the UK?  Wrong.
Kevin has done a movie of today's preparations for school and will probably post it next.   In the meantime, a couple of photos taken recently and today.


A picture I did for Faye, cos I've actually NEVER done a Fairy Picture and it's something she asked me to do a long time ago.   She was pleased with this effort, so that's the main thing!





One proud little chap ready to go off to School, with his Manorfield Nursery School book bag ... he's got much more uniform with logos on etc. but the rest of the clothing is for the winter, so he's still basically wearing his summer uniform but with black socks and new shoes. 


 Faye immediately after running in the front door after school - Laila jumping all over her.  Is this the face of a disappointed child?!
 Another well-chuffed smile, straight after arriving back home from school today.

Two poppits - note how Ewan has been sweating! 
Ewan doesn't go full day yet, he only goes in the afternoons from 1pm to 3pm for another day and then next week he goes for most of the day.  He only starts going full day towards the end of next week (I think).  Shame, they should just let them start and go for the full day, because they are so excited and just want to go to school!  Nice.

  1. The kids look great and so happy with life, England looks good for them...brilliant. Nice fairy picture there Janice, not a Constable but still good!. You are having a good summer over there, not normal I promise you but enjoy while it lasts. Got bitten by a spider on my finger so work has slowed down here as very painful...
