Why don't you just hold off until the 17th when the new class opens? That way he won't have to "settle" twice IYGWIM]]> Thu, 30 Oct 2008 21:52:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=531771&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#531771 <![CDATA[i dont want to go to school! : When Nyah started last September...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=531650&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#531650 Author: .Mel

When Nyah started last September she was year 0 and this year she is year 1. I personally think it was the best thing for her.. it made her alot more confident for this year.

that was my original plan... however if i start him next year they put him straight into year 1, but if he starts this year it will be year 0, which is more of an introduction to school. i dont want to handicap him if i can help it   


Oh... that's a bit of a pain, you'd think that he could have a short time of year 0 before year 1 whenever he was enrolled.]]> Thu, 30 Oct 2008 18:37:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=531486&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#531486 <![CDATA[i dont want to go to school! : i dont know - i wont get to meet...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=530723&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#530723 Author: Bizzy

i dont know - i wont get to meet the teacher or the kids till the 17th. on the plus it will be a really small class - 5 or 6 kids - and i do know one of the kids is a special needs with cerebal palsy.
he knew a girl in the class today from kindy and i recognised a few other faces in the playground. ]]> Wed, 29 Oct 2008 22:43:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=530723&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#530723 <![CDATA[i dont want to go to school! : Hugs!

Hugs! I don't have anything constructive to add coz Maya was sooo ready for school, it was me that wasn't lol! But hopefully he'll settle in as he makes a few wee friends. Are any of the other kindy kids going to be in his class.]]> Wed, 29 Oct 2008 22:22:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=530700&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#530700 <![CDATA[i dont want to go to school! : busymum wrote:Why don&#039;t...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=530676&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#530676 Author: Bizzy

He will no doubt have a few anxious moments, and I'm sure that within a couple of weeks of him starting everything will fall into place nicely.

What is his teacher like? ]]> Wed, 29 Oct 2008 20:31:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=530544&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#530544 <![CDATA[i dont want to go to school! : Awww, hopefully once he has been...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22036&PID=530425&title=i-dont-want-to-go-to-school#530425 Author: mummy_becks

Awww, hopefully once he has been to a few more he will know what he has to do at school.

thats the cry i keep getting from gabriel.

and today we had his first school visit. half an hour into it and he said "can i go in the playground now?" and when we left he said again he didnt want to go to school.

Poor wee thing, i really felt sorry for him knowing that i am sending him off to have all the fun and games taken away... i wish there was a nicer way of teaching him - bar home schooling cause i dont have the patience for that!
