The School Run
Planning the school run can be useful. Decide on how to get there and try out your chose route before the school starts, to avoid any surprises on the first day. Only bare in mind that certain areas get a lot more busier during term time. We therefor support the Walk To School Campaign!

Packed Lunch vs School Dinners
School Dinners offers a more relaxed start to the day, without the hassle of having to make a packed lunch. It is also night to have a hot meal served during the school day. But if you want to be more in control of what your child eats, or if your child have any allergies or intolerance – or simply is just a fuzzy eater – you might want to go for packed lunch. We have a post on the topic Packed Lunch vs School Dinners to help make a decision.
School Gate Fashion
Then last but not least, are YOU ready for the School gate… Do you walk the School Run-way? Dress down, dress up – to blend in?
Wishing you all a restful end of the holiday. x
