With schools breaking up for the summer holidays this week, there will be a mixture of excitement and dread sweeping the country – and that’s just from the parents.
Whether you can’t wait for six full weeks of late mornings, outdoor activities and child-friendly day trips or are breaking out in a cold sweat at the idea of juggling work and childcare and praying for good weather because the thought of spending longer than 24 hours in a confined space with your children makes you break into a sweat – there are certain thoughts all parents have over the summer break.
Day one
Yeah, school’s out for summer!
Because I don’t care what age you are, who doesn’t love the last day of term.
Beginning of week one
And relax.
