super duper fabulous news!
Apr. 17th, 2008 10:16 pmNicholas has got his place at Preston Street. He's going to his big brother's school.
The school secretary called me today to let me know, she said there'd be a letter from the COuncil, but she thought I'd like to know as soon as possible. She said he is the only out-of-district child getting a place. There were 15 applications.
Mummy being sick, daddy travelling for work, and mummy being on the School's Parent Council, plus having a sibling were our reasons for our placing request. I guess we needed all of those. I had been relatively unworried, assuming that as we had so many reasons, we'd have no problem. Now I realise, given that 14 got turned down, we really did need all those reasons. I wonder how many sibling requests have been turned down. I know of at least one so far.
Anyway - N is going to Preston Street, and I am very happy. So are he and TT. And Bill too, of course.
