It’s been emotional. It’s been quieter. And it’s nearly over. The first week back to school, and for some of our little ones, the first ever week of school, is in the final stretch. BritMums have been, as ever, thoughtful and funny throughout.
BareNaked Mummy reflects on the first week in her post, One Week Down and explains the traffic light system that operates in her daughter’s new class.
