How exciting. Hope it all goes well Peggy - can't wait to hear the updates.

Sending you all the best, what lovely news Peggy, those are four lucky children and you are very special people.

[Guest]

Thanks everyone for your best wishes.

 

I am already enjoying the 'parental' role of contacting schools etc, it's been such a long time since my own children were at school that I am looking forward to meeting the headteacher at our local Primary on Monday, and seeing all the changes I have only, as yet, read about on this forum.

 

I'll keep you posted.

Good Luck Peggy, what an exciting time for you

A final update and then I shall continue my Fostering news in a blog, as it's not wholly an FS subject.

Hade meeting with Primary school on Monday, acting head (until Sept) was great, the 4 yr old girl starts september and 2 boys 8 & 10 yrs start after half term.

 

Went to London today for LAC review followed by an arrangment meeting. ( 10:30 - 15:30 with a 20 min break between meetings - yawn smiley) plus 2 hour journey each way.

 

Chair of review asked us for our FULL address in front of childrens mum, then asked is it confidential :unsure:

( she apologised to us afterwards and thankfully mum knowing our address shouldn;'t cause too many problems)

 

All children are doing well at school although we have now found out through reading reports that the 3 boys are all SEN on Action Plus.

 

the 8 yr old is on P scales,(will need a statement) the 10 year old is about 3 yrs behind and the 12 yr old is about 4 yrs behind.

 

We have got a school place for the 4, 8 & 10 yr old, having problems for the 12 yr old but their LA education people are excellent and this should be sorted out soon.

 

We start visits on 12th May, because they are so far away we will stay in hotel on Friday nights, visit them saturdays, stay in hotel sat night, visit them on sunday, this will be for 2 weekends, the 19th they will visit our house. Then two other weeknight teatime visits from us to them. Then they move in with us on Friday 27th May :wacko:

 

Goodness knows when I will get time to do my degree work, I shall have to take my laptop up to London every weekend

 

Further updates will be in my blog ( when I start it)

My mind doesn't seem to want to switch off, hence the unearthly hour of this post :rolleyes: , best get off to bed now though, got a preschool to run tomorrow.
