DD8 is turning 9 soon. She’s having a party at the end of July but due to breaking up for school on Friday I gave the invites out last week.

she moved to this new school 3 weeks ago and has invited all the girls in her class (she’s having a cow girl theme).

iv only heard from one parent out of 15 she’s invited. She breaks up tomorrow so I have no way of contacting anyone to chase up etc.

Wwyd? :(

Is it a party at your house? Or a hall/venue, or an event where you pay per kid?

What about family kids, neighbourhood kids? Kids from her old school? Is there not a class WhatsApp or chat group you could remind the other parents?
