Rowan Tree and Red Thread

'cos I was at a school meeting for the first time. Last night I went down the Cork School Project, where Rowan is enrolled to start in 'junior infants' in the autumn. It was the registration and basic meet and greet sort of thing. I was really impressed with the principal and his team, all organised, all enthusiastic. It's a little school in the middle of the city, multi-denominational and co-ed.

There's an open day on the 8th of June when we can bring Rowan along to meet the teacher and look around. She's already talking about 'big school' and she's quite excited that a couple of kids from the crèche are going to be in her class, including one kid who's just left the Montessori, so there'll be a reunion soon.

Rowan's going to school in September. Wow.
