DD started reception in sep, she is struggling to settle in and make friends with the others as she is very young, she had just turned 4 the week before she started. I have spoken to the teacher at length about how we can get her more settled etc. Anyway I have just heard that there is a school trip coming up, where they will go on a coach for 40 mins and then have a day out and the coach back. I just feel that she is far too young to be doing this and am really worried that it's going to unsettle her further etc, I have asked if I can go too and help on the trip but they have said they have enough staff going so no more space...I am thinking of not letting her go but when I said this to the school, they looked shocked as if I was doing something awful! I know don't know if to let her go or not...I don't want her to be further left out by not having been on the trip but also I don't want her to feel unhappy all day and have to deal with a whole day away just so she doesn't get left out!
