00:00 The start of year for us is all about looking forward, celebrating the results from summer,
00:07 you know, welcoming our new staff and children, so it's incredibly frustrating that we're
00:12 now focusing on where we're going to teach children and how we're going to teach them.
00:19 You've had six weeks, you know, most children have sort of had enough. We don't have any
00:24 plans, we've come back from holiday, so we're all set to go. I've bought three lots of uniform
00:29 and school shoes and, you know, that would have been nice to stagger if I didn't have
00:35 to pay for it all in one go.
