Last day of school

This picture was taken in the Isle of Wight, in Robin Hill. A place Wolfie liked a lot. I might be wrong, but I believe it was taken in Duck Down Village. I share it because it goes well with today's topic. Today is Wolfie's last day at school in year one. The school he goes is not nearly as small as this one, but it is a fairly little school, with only a few pupils per year. I will not repeat what I said last year, except that the year does go too fast. I will add oe thing though: the school year is far too long here. I mean it ends in July, when the month is two thirds done. It is really too long and exhausting for the children and their parents. And it makes for far too short holidays, even though the year went too fast. Being a parent creates all sorts of paradoxes like this one.
