one week of school under his belt, luke's wearing his backpack for the first time and seems quite proud of himself

School has been going very well for Luke.  Tim and I leave well before Paul takes Luke to school, but I have it from Paul that Luke is happy to go to school and gives Paul a hug, kiss and 'eye-eye' every morning. 

The school is .8 miles from our flat, straight down a busy-ish road, around the corner onto a busier road, and then a block to school.  Paul has to hold Luke's hand the whole way, but the walk is pleasant enough.  It's near the train station, so when Paul starts to work, it will be easy for him to go from the school to the train.  Luke can be at school from 8-18.00, and if we pay more, he can be dropped off at 7.30.  We usually collect him around 17.00, and so far he's always playing with trains and happy to see Paul and come home. 

Luke's day consists of things like story time, music, art, indoor free play, outdoor free play, snacks, lunch and tea (dinner).  They have a large outdoor play area with two big rabbits in cages.  His primary care giver is Jodie.  We feel that we've found a safe and nurturing environment for Luke.  Paul did all the work for this and deserves loads of praise.
