It’s officially the start of a new school year and term 1 which means the kids go back to school.

Miss HD has already began her next step in life as a high school student but at boarding school. She had her first week of school last week which was by all her accounts- fun!! She is boarding because this school is an hour away from our home. It’s too much for her to travel each day and besides, it’s a great experience!! I believe this will set her up for life.
The karate kid and I are starting a new journey too!! We are going to the same school. As I got a permanent job at a local school, it made sense to bring him with me. He is going to have the most amazing teacher this year – ME!!

I can keep track of his learning and it’s takes a burden away from the days when I haven’t been able to go to sports events or be there to see other cool things because I couldn’t get time off work!! It will be a process but we will get there.
So while I have my first day back at school (teacher only day) the Karate Kid has to wait until tomorrow so he gets one more day to hang out with his Nan and Grandad!!
So if you’re heading back to the usual routines and kids are going back to school too – ENJOY!!
Until next time, be safe
