I'm nervous for my 4 year old who is starting reception class on Monday. Even though she has spent 2 years in the Kindergarten of her school and knows everyone who will be in the class I am still feeling slightly worried for her. She has had the same teacher for 2 years but will now have a new one, will wear the full proper uniform, sit at her own desk, attend for 5 full days a week instead of part-time, and have much more formal lessons. I know she will be fine and my school own entry was so untraumatic that I don't even remember anything about it, I think it is that I am aware that she will change so much over the next year. I feel like I'm losing my "baby". Of course I am being very calm and matter of fact about it all to my daughter and she is really looking forward to it but does anyone else how I feel. Or am I just being a pathetic soppy mother?
