Sitting on the floor

[sidress]

I just wondered how common it is elsewhere for girls in later primary school to 1 have to sit on the floor in class or assembly, and 2 insisted to sit cross legged (yoga style). I remember this but that was a we while ago. My daughter said they have to do this and it is quite uncomfortable, especially when wearing a skirt. Is it too much to put chairs out for everyone?

Must check dates . Girl is in year 10 now and has presumably worked out how to sit on the floor.

We sat crossed legged on the floor all through infants, primary and secondary up until sixth form.

Gobbler - don't forget to mention you had to walk to the mill in 6 foot of snow, with no shoes and it was uphill both ways.

Is this a joke?
