This tiredness 'thing' at school for Reception year pupils...

Is it inevitable?

I was told when dd went to Pre School 'oooh she'll be tired, prepare for her to conk out after a session here'. She loved Pre School but she came home as wired as an ever ready battery as she often is...

Again, people say that she'll be cream crackered after school...appreciate it is early days (only 2 days into Reception)- but again, she seems completely unruffled by whole thing and spent the afternoon post school trampolining...

Will this tiredness thing hit her later, or are some children 'immune' ?

(would love for her to come home physically spent and collapse on the sofa actually)

wow, those are really helpful descriptions of how school affects kids, issymum and anchovy....I just have a feeling ds will find the whole 'complying' and learning to fit around other people's timescales EXTREMELY hard.....will definitely remember curlew's advice about the odd day off!
