Thought it would be nice to start a support thread on here about the wait for our DC getting into secondary schools. Anyone else glad the tests are all over?

doesnt help that the following week our kitchen gets demolished in anticipation of a lovely new one. Too much waiting - aaarrrrgh!!!!!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 25/02/2011 10:45

so how is everyone keeping busy on tuesday then? I have nothing in my calender Shock I will have to dedicate it to packing stuff away or something active like that.

crazymum53 · 25/02/2011 10:48

Hello there can I join in as I am waiting too. Even though I applied on-line still have to wait for the postman (or post lady) to deliver the news by letter sent second class post to see which of the 3 schools we will be allocated. Am in non grammar area so no tests have been taken.

I've no idea how I hear Blush but Tuesday I'm taking dd3 for her 3 month jabs(at 5 months Hmm)

OhYouBadBadKitten · 25/02/2011 12:37

Thats a bit rubbish crazymum!

nymphadora - talk about a stressful day!

starfleet · 25/02/2011 13:11

Hi all - another one waiting to hear.

Keep getting a churning feeling in my stomach which probaly won't go until the envelope lands on the doormat next week! It doesn't help that i won't be working on Tuesday so will be just waiting and waiting and waiting some more as our postman just seems to turn up at random times every day!

MrsGrahamBellForTheSkiSeason · 25/02/2011 13:36

may be worth bearing in mind tha tthe postie may be a bit busier (ie later Sad) that day with all teh offers going out...

GORGEOUSX · 25/02/2011 13:46

Honestly, I leave you for a few hours and when I get back there are no chairs and no Wine.... come on ladies, if you want to keep busy you should be helping pour, at least. Wink

Starfleet take a seat .... here's a Wine

Crazymum sit here....... there you go Wine

GORGEOUSX · 25/02/2011 13:51

I thought the results would be posted on 1st March, so we wouldn't receive them, physically, until 2nd???????

Sorry!

OhYouBadBadKitten · 25/02/2011 15:11

good luck with the post! Maybe thats why ours are being sent by email after 5pm? so technically its the next day???

OhYouBadBadKitten · 25/02/2011 15:14

ooo, that was odd tried to cancel half way so I could make my post make more sense.

crazymum53 · 25/02/2011 15:36

Thanks for the Wine but a Brew is more appropriate for this time of day. So have one on me ! Smile

bitsyandbetty · 25/02/2011 15:44

I am nervous too. My DS at feeder school but we live outside of the catchment. He would be very disappointed. Fingers crossed!

CupAndSaucer · 25/02/2011 15:45

I did overhear a couple of ladies in Patisserie Valerie this week talking about the dreaded day......" of course, it's a no brainer dd getting into TIffin".
Hmmm. Her and 1400 others.
Wonder how many mums are on the Valium?

miniwedge · 25/02/2011 18:26

I have decided to stay in bed eating until Tuesday night. It's the only way.

willow · 25/02/2011 19:58

OMG, just double checked and yes we do have to wait until 5pm to get online results. Like the system is going to cope, and all...
