My nieces are coming tonlive with me. I have older children so need reminded on rough bedtimes for:

8 year old, just finished Y3, going into Y4 in September- school days and weekends/holidays.

10 year old (nearly 11), just finished Y6, starting secondary in Sepetember - school days and weekends/holidays.

Whats the approximate norm? My own kids are teens so I think I may have forgotten how much sleep they need at this age. Thanks.

I can’t quite remember either but I seem to think we tried to get DD asleep by 8 at age 8 but she’s always needed a good long stretch.

10 year old maybe go up at half 9 and lights out at 10.30?

There’s a fostering section on MN which you might find helpful too Flowers

No problem. Can’t imagine that any of you have been through an easy time lately. I hope the transition goes as smoothly as it can Flowers
