Hi, I am a serial lurker who is going to take a more active part in discussions from now on.
I was in DS2's reception class today and two girls were asked to give out their party invitations (right after show and tell so while everyone was sitting down). Those who got invitations were asked to put them in their bag, those who didn't were asked to stay sitting. More than half the class didn't get invitations so it wasn't like just one or two kids were left out.
I am wondering what people think of this policy, and what happens in other schools. I was really surprised, I assumed it was done discretely, but I guess it is also good for kids to learn that they don't get invited to everything. Now I know this, I will have a little chat with DS2 about it, he didn't seem bothered about not being invited to either party, nobody did actually, I just thought it was strange to do it so openly without any thought for the noninvited. Views welcome, thanks :)
