Early school start....why????!
Having lived here for over 14 years and doing the school run for all of that time, (with a few more years to go...) I still don't understand why we have to get our kids to school so early. It isn't a case of keeping 'cooler hours' anymore! They start, in most cases between 7.30am and 8am, due to the traffic situation we have to leave earlier and earlier -(6.45am in our case) - which usually means getting up around 5.45am, if your child has to get the school bus they pick up anywhere from 6am to 7am! Mine are in secondary now, usually finishing around 4 to 4.30pm with after school activities....homework and any extra curricular stuff done in the evening quite often means kids not getting to bed fairly late, to be up at 5.45am again! If our kids were starting earlier and finishing earlier than their cousins at home in the UK I could possible understand it, but actually in the UK they start at 8.45am and finish at 3pm??????? Wouldn't it be more sensible to have a slightly later start, less traffic on the roads so it would be safer, kids would have a good nights sleep and be better for it!!!!As would I! Sorry, moan over!
