Froddy do your school not do appointments? We have to fill out a form to say if we want an appointment and whether we want after school 3-5pm or an evening 6pm onwards. If you have more than one kid at school then the two teachers get together and give you appointments where you don't have to wait in between. It's the same at the high school you fill in a form stating what class teachers you want to see and they set appointments for them for you.I'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged0 -

cosmomo - Weetabix cake is delicious. A bit like a malt loaf but not as dense. It keeps really well and toasts like a tea cake too. Recipe HERE. I usually add a extra bit of cinnimon as we like it.Hospital appt went as well as it could. I lost some more weight which was nice and had a diabetes eye test too - my first one.
Friends down for dinner and some board games tonight. There is no truth in the rumours that it may get rather raucous and competitive! (Though none of us drink so we cannot blame the booze for that!)Off to find a list or two.Diva.x

Froddy it gets about the same response at my sons special school as parents just go to the frequent reviews & some struggle very much (I do if DP is at work) with childcare. They're considering offering childcare at DS1s school but still it's a lot getting a child with special needs + others mobile on a cold evening. I always go but now they phone to ask who will definately go as staff have sat around for nothing before.
I realise that - I was moaning more about the silly way we have parents' evening rather than the fact that the parents didn't come. I think there's only one parent I haven't seen at all this term - and, yes, child care is a huge problem for a lot of them.funfairprincess wrote: »Froddy do your school not do appointments?

Unfortunately not - we used to, and we used to have an earlier start which i think was better! Now we all sit in the hall and parents turn up anytime between 5 and 7. To be fair, I do only have 10 in my class and 2 of them have asked to see me when they pick their child up in the week.
